Hey guys,
I have a 55 gallon Saltwater tank which has:
-50 pounds of live rock
-40 pounds of live sand
-3 power heads(3200gph in total)
- Canister filter(265gph)
This fish tank has been cycling for 2-3 weeks now. At first my Ammonia was high but then it got to zero thankfully. But then my nitrite was at 2ppm and nitrAte was at 5.0ppm. How can i lower this? When do i do my water change to finish the cylce? Am i almost done with the cycle? How many days are left to cycle? What would you do if this was your tank?
PH: 8.0
Ammonia: ZERO ppm
Nitrite: 2.0ppm
NitrAte: 5.0ppm
