I believe my nitrites are on the way down. Nitrates are up to around 20+. Ammonia goes down pretty quick about 2-3ppm in 24 hrs. Looks like Im getting closer!! What can I expect?
another thing I need a little tip on.... I had to do a couple big water changes , to get nitrites down, added 3 more plants also. I got a little of the bacteria bloom goin on, not to worried about that. Same thing happened when I first put the water in, lasted a couple days...but, If I added some flourish while the water is still cloudy, since it is putting trace nutrients in the water, will it increase the duration of the bacteria bloom? Would it cause the "bloom" when water is clear?
