I have been fighting high nitrates for about a month now. I upgraded my tank to a 40 Gal 2 months ago and had a mini-cycle. ammonia and nitrites are 0 but nitrates are stuck at 48 (Hanna tester) I did 2 50% water changes and that has had no effect. It looks like I have Dino's in my sand.( I think thats what it is) and its getting worse.
( I think thats what it is) and its getting worse.
Tthe LFS suggested this stuff from SeaChem:
What do you all think? is this good to use? is there anything else that I can do?? I also got 2 Diamond Gobies today so I hope they will clean up the sand.
Current Params:
Salinity = 1.026
Ph = 8.1
Ammon. = 0
Nitrite = 0
Nitrate = 48
Phos = .024
Calcium = 490
Mag = 1430
