Hi all,
First post on new tank
150litres
Aqua one 1000 canister
7.5 ph
Nh3 0.02
Nh4 60 plus and climbing
Nitrites 2-5ppm
Nitrates 10 - 20ppm
Mangrove roots x2 tannin leaching is very slight
Tank clean and clear.
Zero fish as yet
I have done a 100 litre water change which reduced Nh4 from 41 to 34
I cleaned tank removing all debris.
I am stumped as to why the Nh4 just climbs....
I am running a sense and I am using an api test kit.
Can anybody give me some insight please?
Craig
