Hey, it‘s me again with another question
We are at Day 12 of cycling our new 250l tank. It is equipped with live sand, but dead rock. It is a used tank that we bought on eBay. We cleaned it very tidy before starting to cycle. We used a dead shrimp to start the cycle. It is heavily decomposed already.
At this point, we are a little bit confused about the levels of NH3,NO2 and NO3 we measure. Here are our graphs of those:
Based on these graphs, what do you think? Where are we standing? I also fail to understand the Nitrate-graph? We did not change any water and yet it dropped?
Thanks for your help!
Eric
