journy to sw nano reef

yeah its less than i expected though. its 3lb of salt about how much was the salt you sent?

 

[carey]

I didn't weigh it lol. It was 5 cups total, enough for 10 gallons.

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

lol i figured you may have known because of shipping weight id say its more than 5 cups

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

ammo back to 4ppm

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

ok todays test after doseing to 4ppm yesterday 24hrs laters theres no ammo?!?! my trites have been at 5ppm won't drop and my trates are 80 160ppm is it time for a pwc?

 

[carey]

Nope. I say give it a few more days. Ans re dose of course

Youre getting there!!

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

the trates are so high it won't stall? and how could tht much ammo disappeared so fast

 

[carey]

You've got solid bacteria.

I think in a day or so maybe a pwc, but you might be on the turning point of trites to 0. You don't wanna mess that up.

You know this isn't my strong suit, it's only what I would do. lol I'm not the uber cycle master some on here are.

 

[hackteck]

your at the home stretch!

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

should i redose now 2ml of ammo ≈4ppm ammo

 

[hackteck]

i dont know anything about dosing i usually do the shrimp fishless cycle

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

yeah il wait n see if idream chimes in

 

[iDream]

Cycling is by no means my forte, though if anything I'd say try to get some trates out. That's quite a lot, but I also don't want you to waste your salt either

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

hmm......would a 1-2g pwc be benifical then dose ammo?

 

[iDream]

Probably so. Like I said I just worry about you wasting salt for no reason


Wait it out for a bit

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

yeah so....wait till tmrw for possible pwc?

 

[iDream]

Yeah, add a bit more ammonia to keep those bacteria fed.

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

full 4ppm or less

 

[iDream]

sure, since it already converted 4 overnight do it again

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

will do
