Ammonia burn in QT

[Dan_P]

You are producing your own evidence - stop skimming posts - and start paying attention, If you haven't analyzed the answer - don't answer - perhaps. Not meant to be insulting - you and Taricha seem to have an agenda - disprove every reef method - go for it - but go for it with evidence - not silliness

If you don’t understand what I post, please ask a clarifying question. I will be happy to explain.

I was hoping for Dan's perspective because he's ran cycling tests I thought were controlled and sensible and charted, they were impressive.

I wanted reasonable insights here since we lack digital tracking ability. not anyone posting can be sure of the final outcome because we don't have the measurement kits that read in the tight range increments of toxicity/no toxicity, that requires digital measurement. among people who could opine on the presence of ammonia here based on sum total findings, Dan and T would be who I'd select.

Fish not shipped " The reef shop I bought it from said they had it for 2 months. The difference in the way it acts after moving it in clean water is extreme."

The fish was shipped for 5-6 hours. Which is why I asked - was it in too small a bag, etc etc etc. Its not like it was a 20 minute drive from the LFS to the owners home

Yeah- I corrected myself as I was under the impression local purchse and OP clarified his statement which was from the shipper

There seems to be a bit of a misunderstanding between the OP and the rest of us. 1. Read the title of the Thread. 2.. Read the first sentence: "in QT while I was asleep." Then tests are posted - to my interpretation showing no ammonia. IDK

No it will also deplete oxygen

Phyto creates oxygen, no? Photosynthesis?

When in the light - Phyto may increase oxygen - in the darkness it will produce CO2 - due to photosynthesis.
