I don't mind doing the water change at all. I was just worried a water change might wipe out the nitrate, the reason being about a week into the tank I had a faint nitrate reading, did a water change with prime and I didn't get another nitrate reading until yesterday, 2 weeks later.
You are right - I don't think the ammonia alert works. It should be reading ammonia if my pH is over 7 and it's not. The pH alert didn't work either. Waste of money.
Anyways this morning the pink on the nitrate test is getting a bit darker, but the ammonia is still between .5 and 1.
Can do water change (25%?) if suggested.
15 gallon, planted, still cycling!
