I honestly would like to see this:
show me one reef past eighty days old full of corals and fish and decent surface area, not bare minimums, above is not bare minimum, that allows it’s free ammonia to reach .1 ppm
we must see the link, and how you make the case for the measure
my patterning comes from seneye post history averages, even with a dead tang lodged in the rocks = ~ .003 from our collection studies
where this comparison goes bad is when people disagree on the fundamental measure. many reefers for example are never going to believe anyone’s seneye post, they’re as good as total fabrication, I won’t believe any outlier claims that can’t be linked for direct inspection: new vs old cycling science is at a stand still until more digital means past seneye are available to benchmark patterns found in aged high flow high surface area setups. Id also add that being able to predict what the reef tank will look like before pics, and for a fair portion of the overall ammonia challenges we work, is reflective of the reliability of the visual assessment method. Nobody hits .1 nh3 in a reef unless a big fish kill happened and they’re left in to rot. I claim no outliers exist for sustained ammonia noncontrol, only nh4 reporting makes it seem that way, but I want to see one or two if available.
I would hone or change the general takeaway of it all given a sufficient case example. In the meantime, expect to be sold bottle bac by every perceivable angle in reefing for the next eight years lol. I get ads as pop ups on my phone, they r pouncing every sales angle / old cycling scare cycling proponents…nitrite testers!
