fiji pink sandit is new i just added saltwater last friday all i have is sand and dry live rock
it is cycling and i have no fish right now the ammonium seems to me to be at .5 ... and i have not done anything+1 with @chandavi, we need a lot more details. Is this a cycling or cycled tank. Tank inhabitants. Anything you might have done to get the levels to be that high? Also are you sure ammonia is at 10ppm? The color does not seem to match.
all i have in the tank is rock and sandBased on the posts by OP, he only got the RODI mixing on 4/13. This is a 75 gallon tank - very very new. @Drake29 - this is part of the cycling process. First ammonia, then nitrite and then nitrite converts to nitrate. Other than water and rock, what is in your tank?
Remember - nothing good happens fast in a reef tank. Slow down - Breathe.
Do i need to get some Dr. Tims all in one,or any Brightwell produscts ? if so what do i needThanks for the additional info @CMMorgan, I really should start checking out older posts by posters too.
Anyways yeah if it is cycling then you gotta wait. If you want a quick cycling reference I made one:
You already have some nitrite, so that indicates you already have some ammonia-oxidizers. I don't know if a bottled bac product would help at this point, because at this point it is not about introducing nitrifiers but maybe just supplementing some to speed up the process. In which case, perhaps FritzZyme Turbo Start 900.Do i need to get some Dr. Tims all in one,or any Brightwell produscts ? if so what do i need
