So yeah... put in two shrimp into my 60 gal (w/ 20 sump) last saturday. Tied the two guys onto my powerhead in a nylon sack so they would get a nice blast of water 24/7. Well, a couple days ago, the shrimp fully dissolved. I put in 15 pounds of LR rubble into my sump yesterday (from LFS, kept 100% in water till I put it into my sump). My water is now:
Am: 1.0
Nitrites: 0.0
1 week and still no nitrites? Should I throw more shrimp in there? They were good sized uncooked cocktail shrimp, and my ammonia never went "off the charts". I thought the shrimp had to be there still desolving till the cycle finished. I'm confused :?
