pH-8.2
nitrite- 0-.1
ammonia-0-.025
nitrate-0-10
good right?
get a second opinion on your tests...
sounds like your test kit isn't very accurate... are you using an API? if so, go for a nothing but net shot into the trashcan..
Almost. I think once your ammonia spikes ad goes down. Your nitrate has to spike. That's what I think and thtas what happened to my tank. Ask though to make sure.
also i thought i was kind coming out of a mini cycle. i have some good diatom growth and the levels have actually come down a little....
well to make sure ask around. I want your tank to come out great
