Excellent questions and also how's your BIOLOAD?

20 is nothing to freak out about, especially if it's a new tank.
over 100 is time to freak out.
But need to know some basic info in order to help.

I second what cjworkman said; 20ppm (nitrates) is no big deal. Nitrites are another story; the two aren't being confused, are they?
