Yea that's strange after 15 days... I'd say one more week test again if it's still at 2ppm somethings up. Maybe try retesting ammonia maybe you made a slight mistake with the test and it's giving you a false reading. If you clean the vial with tap water make sure it's COMPLETELY clean and dry.What I thought also just odd ammonia is still 2ppm
Yea only thing I think it could be. I'd either do another WC or wait a week and see if it goes down at all.I clean with rodi water and I have been testing every other day and I just did a 30% water change to see if I could notice a difference in ammonia test there was 0 so maybe I overdosed ammonia and it’s much higher then 2ppm?
Day 1when is the last time you added ammonia? Day 1? What are Nitrites at? You should be seeing Nitrate raise, even if you did overdose ammonia.
I'm assuming 100% water change?How to unstick any seemingly stuck cycle
non digital ammonia test kit readings (api, Red Sea, nyos, seachem badges) make you think you aren’t cycled when indeed you are if you owned a $200 expensive seneye meter, you’d never be doubting your cycle status. since .01% of the reefing population owns these, we need a way to help the...www.reef2reef.com
14 pages on how to fix that tank above.
step 1 change water
step two, add some life
step three put down the test kits
step four post us proof pics I link them to page fifteen.
*as we debate what is shown for a year there, remember we aren't talking test kit stated params there for pages. we think those are wrong in nearly every stated case.
what we do speak about is # of days underwater, which you've met, and dosing a booster, which you have
we then use tank pics with animals in it as the final proof, we never never ever believe the stated test kit ranges, that's key in the success of the pages and the timeliness of each cycle call.
your specific start date was a few days ago. I know your tests dont agree, they're not factored above and we keep turning out great systems and occasionally a seneye owner spot checks us; we pass
seneye test kit owners are the only ones we believe on a one off reading.
Did you seed the aquarium with nitrifiers in any way? If you have no nitrifiers then nothing can handle the ammonia. Or at least, it will take a long time.I haven't added since because ammonia is 2ppm and been there
I added a few pounds of Live Rock and dr tims one and onlyDid you seed the aquarium with nitrifiers in any way? If you have no nitrifiers then nothing can handle the ammonia. Or at least, it will take a long time
Yeah that's weird then. I mean a lot of reports recently that Dr. Tim's One and Only does not seem to really be working, but well if you have live rock defo should have the nitrifiers you'd need. Do you have a pic of your tank?Added
