O.K. I know bubbles in the sand are indicators that the DSB is working. My question: are the absence of the bubbles against the glass an indicator of the DSB NOT working?
This is day 34 of my cycle, and the nitrates have gone from 80+ and down to 20 and seem to be hovering between 15 and 20ppm. I used 200lbs. of playsand, and added 30 lbs. LS, and mixed it in around the top 2" of sand. I have 130+lbs. of LR (119 Gallon tank) and about 90 circulation. I haven't added a Protein skimmer yet, Could that be my nitrate problem?
sorry, I snuck two not-so-quick questions in.
