Hi...
I purchased a Fluval chi (25Lt) the other day as they do a lid for it now and I want to house a Betta in it.
Anyway I set it up and on day 1, I added a squeeze from existing media and added Sechem Stability to aid the cycle ( I have used this product in the past with great results) Day 2 added some more media squeeze to the tank and Stability dose.
Day 3 (yesterday) added Stability dose in the evening I tested for Am = 0 and to my big surprse the Nitrite reading was 0.5 ..? how can this be.. No Fish in tank but put a Java on lava from another tank.
Using API Test kit (new) Tested on my other tanks to check and it's fine.
Any thoughts.....
Well today Nitrite still at 0.5.....??
