I wasnt promoting peeing in your tank merely saying its certainlynot the first ive heard of it. I personally wouldnt do it and was kinda saying watch out for the unscrupulous lfs

Henry405 said:"some" nitrate is a sign that the tank went through the nitrogen cycle. 160ppm of nitrate with 5ppm of nitrite left is quite high. I'm not sure if high nitrate would stall the cycle or not, lets wait and see what others think
Fird said:Yesterday I filled my media basket and todays levels are:
Ammonia .25 ppm
Nitrite .25 ppm
Nitrate 10 ppm
Any thoughts? I think I'm ready. Tomorrow ill do a big water change and add a clean up crew.
