Hey, I've written a couple threads on the curing process, but I just had a few more questions. I now got my tank about 2 1/2 weeks ago, its going great. I got the LR about 1 week ago. I've been doing a lot of research on curing LR and some of the processes, I saw a couple of people urged to scrub off the LR, but I didn't do that. Is it ok to havn't have scrubed off the LR? I have plenty of circulation, a Cascade 1200 canister filter, Red Sea Prizm skimmer, and a heater. Just today I checked the ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate. The ammonia is perfect at 0 ppm, nitrate at 10, and nitrite at 5.0. Now I was told the ammonia went up the roof but it is perfect. Could it have already gone up and already went down, and now the nitrite is going to work? I have not done a water change yet, I am in the process of mixing up some new saltwater and letting it age a day or so. Also, should I keep the light on while I'm curing the LR, as of now I just have a regular light that came with the cover, I plan on getting a new one within a week or so until I have saved up some extra money. Thanks for everyones help!
