I tested my water on december 1st and it contained the usual amount of nitrites, which was 0. When I tested the water again two weeks later my nitrites where greater than one. In this time period I only added one more fish which brings the total to 4. I have a flame angel, a royal gramma, and two percula clowns. The only other thing that I did diffrent in this time is include a new filtation substrate in my filter bag along with my activated carbon. It is a product called zeolite. This product claims to help reduce ammonia. As far as I can see I think that this product might be the cause of my increased nitrite levels because it is speeding up the nitrification process to fast. I was hoping that someone can give me some help. Also, when I relaized that the nitrites where high yesterday I did a water change and then another today with no avail in the levels.
