Hi,
After two times failure, now I have started for the third time with cycling my tank with live rock, I am waiting for the ammonia Seachem alert which I have ordered and hope to get in today. Also find below the embedded video link for your view.
Please inform me whether I am going in the right way. There are brown layers formed in the bottom of the tank after a week now. Light setting is,blue light on for 8 hrs and day light on for 3 hrs.
My LFS guy is saying me to take all the rock out and clean it again with the brush and put it back inside shall i do like this or leave as it's and wait till the green algae is showing up.
As of now my parameters are as below.
Salinity - 36 (refractometer)
Calcium - 500 (Red sea test kit)
Alkalinity - 10.5 (Red sea test kit)
Magnesium 2000 (Red sea test kit)
Phosphate - 0 (Api test kit)
Nitrate - 0 (API test kit)
pH - 8.1 (HM digital)
