Hello, my old 33 gallon tank got infested
So I started a new 40 gallon reef tank.
So far I have dry rock in it and a few small pieces of live rock
I introduced a few snails and mushrooms
It's been a week now.
Backteria is low since it's all new.
I just purchased fritz zyme 9
Live nitrifying bacteria
It say on bottles it removes naturally ammonia & nitrite.
The fish store told me I can't use this product until my ammonia is between 2 and 5.
Is this correct
My ammonia is around 0.5 right now
The fish store told me to add food.
I'm trying to speed up the bacteria so I can transfer my fish and soft coral from old tank.
Please advice
Thank you
