my tank has been running about 2 months, and his cycled. i just got a Nitrate test kit, so i tested my tank water, it read as 25 mg/l. on the instruction sheet it said 25mg/l or lower is ok for fish, and good for plant life. does this sound ok?
part II of this post is this...
I tested my tap water out of curiousity, and it read 12.5 mg/l. is this highly abnormal, or does tap water sometimes show traces of Nitrates in it? I'm not overly concerned, because i figure if i keep the levels at 25 mg/l or below, i'll be ok. But I thought it was a little weird my tap wasn't 0 mg/l.
