Hey everyone , so i just joined the hobby after maybe 10 years considering to try
anyway i've started the cycle 6 days ago with live rock from local reef shop
after two days i think i had a bactrica bloom and water became very milky and cloudy and just yesterday the water got back to crystal clear
but sadly through all this period i didnt have my water test and i just received it today and did my tests :
pH: i would say between 7.8 to 8 but 8 more like it
AMMONIA:between .25 to .50 but i would say .25 more like
NITRITE: 0
NITRATE: 10ppm to 20ppm and i would say 10ppm
please guide me from here guys i dont know why after doing these i feel i got a bit confused and im messing up
thanks everyone
