I used fritz turbostart 900 for my 75-gallon saltwater tank. I had dry rock with live sand around 40 pounds and I used ammonia Dr. Tim’s in a bottle to cycle the tank. It has been set up and running for almost 10 days, I did water changes twice to lower ammonia and nitrites, here are my levels:
my nitrites are at 3.0 ppm,
nitrates at 40 ppm,
and ammonia at 0 ppm.
Should I add more ammonia to feed the bacteria or add anything else to lower the nitrate and nitrite?
