After a difficult 2020-2021 where we had to sell our house and ended up relocating, made improvements to the new place. Now I have my old tank running again. Been few weeks used “live sand”, my old base rock after pressure washing it. A big bottle of TLC- Smart Start, right after the water went in. Installed the Ammonia batch two days later and 0 ammonia. I used my API test kit and same reading, nothing for ammonia (well there a trace). Nitrates <5. I have check/tested for the same with the same result. After three weeks I think its “cycle” Any thoughts? Suggestions?
Welcome back. I've not heard of smart start but it sounds like it does what they claim as far as instant cycle.
