Hi All,
I'm following this guide - https://reef2reef.com/threads/the-supreme-guide-to-setting-up-a-saltwater-reef-aquarium.138750/
I'm onto the Cycle stages.
My tank is now showing no signs of ammonia (which i assume is good), however is now showing signs of Nitrites and Nitrates.
So I assume I am somewhere between the "Stage 2: Nitrite Cycle" and "Stage 3: Nitrate Cycle".
My question is.
Do I continue to "ghost feed" the bacteria to ensure the process continues and bacteria does not die off or do I stop ghost feeding and allow the tank to continue through to the end of the cycle stages?
I'd appreciate some clarification on this part of the stage.
Thanks,
Tuxy
