I've posted before asking.. but I get so worried I'm not doing things write.. I'm 4th day into ym tank being set up... 5 lbs of LR, 20 lbs of LS ... few hermit crabs and snails (which lfs told my husband to bring home--and I'm thinking of bringing them back tomorrow)..
I checked my water... my gravity is at 1.023-4 (the first time I checked it today, it pegged, so I put it back in and it was at the 1.023.. is there a reason for this??? Could it of possibly been sticking or having air bubbles I didn't realize were there?
My ph is at 8.0
My ammonia was at 0.25 where its been at since the first time I tested...
Nitrites are 0
and Nitrates are 0
I just didnt know how fast this should be going, I'm not impatient, well maybe just a little bit, but I figured I'd see more ammonia then that so that the Nitrites would start.. anyone have any ideas? Or could this possibly take longer... before I start to notice the Nitrites coming up?
