I used Fritz TurboStart 900 and I’m using the Fritz Ammonium Chloride to do a fishless cycle.What did you use to start your cycle?
So once my ammonia and nitrites are at 0. I do a water change, then I can add CUC?Based on the green algae and diatoms, I suspect you are either cycled or about to finish cycling. Some hobbyists believe these represent the end of a cycle, but that's an erroneous assumption as both can be present during a cycle and have no direct correlation on the ability of nitrifying bacteria to process ammonia.
Great to know! Thank you so much for your help! I feel like maybe I’m on the right track now.Also, as to the green spots- completely normal. Your rock will all turn green in time. That will last about 3-6 months before it should start turning purple/pink with coraline algae. The diatoms (brown dust on rock/sand) will usually dissapear within a few weeks/month. They need to consume the excess silicates first.
