What seachem product? Prime? I can't think why it would. Having 5ppm of nitrates isn't bad. For freshwater it's quite good and relatively low. It sounds like you're probably cycled if you have nitrates. How long has the tank been running and what's in it?
My ammonia was at 1 ppm. I have since done a water change today putting it at below .5ppm.
And doesn't the appearance of nitrates mean nitrite bacteria? Meaning tank being cycled?
So it's day 4 since I posted my first post and checks my levels. No water changed have been done. No chemicals added, only fish food.
Ammonia is at .5
Nitrite still 0
Nitrate still 5
Same exact levels for 4 days in a row. Does this mean anything?
