I had trouble cycling my quarantine tank with Dr. Tims, so I tried Fritz Turbo Start after two weeks. The ammonia went down to 0 after a week, but the nitrate/nitrite was slightly above zero, but after asking around, everyone mentioned going ahead with adding in some clownfish. I added the clownfish but noticed the ammonia went up slightly. After seven days, I changed 50% of the water, and still finding ammonia, nitrate, and nitrite slightly above zero.
Should I proceed with copper treatment?
Parameters:
Ammonia: .2 ppm
Nitrite: .5 ppm
Nitrate: 1 ppm
Alkalinity: 7 dKH
PH: 8,0
Salinity: 1.027 d SG
