My tank has been set up for 10 days and I have been logging the
progress of the test results. I'm on day 10 of a 55 gal tank. In the begining I saw the test results on the rise from day 1 to day 6 and for the last 4 days there has been no changes with my test results. I belive they may have peeked but they dont drop. I'm using Nitromax to speed up the bacteria process along with the introduction of 4 small damsel fish I added on day 4. All fish are healthy and eating How long can one expect to see the same test results untill the test results start droping? My results Salt 1.023 Temp 78 PH 8.5 Ammonia level is 3.0mg Nitrite level is 1.6 Nitrate level is 50mg I have no carbon filteration (yet) I'm not using a Protein Skimmer (yet) USING 2 ehiems 2017 1-completely full of Ehfisubstrat with 2 types of filter pads on top (lots of real estate for bacteria growth) 2nd Filled with the media that came with the filter 1/2 full of ehfisubstrat,Filter Mesh,and 2 types of filter pads. Thanks for everyone answering my questions for the last 2 weeks, once I get more educated I will be able to help other newbees with what I have learned from my experiences THKS/Rick |
