Hello everyone, I am new to this hobby and in the midst of cycling my tank. I am puzzled by the readings on my seneye reef.
Temp: 25.5°C
pH: 7.68
NH3: 0.248ppm
NH4: 37.06ppb
O2: 8.1
I would like to request for sound advice with regards to the accuracy of the readings and whether I'm in trouble with the high free ammonia reading provided by the seneye.
My Salifert test kits came out at follows:
Ammomia: 1.5
Nitate: 25
I dosed the tank with Dr Tims ammonium chloride and might have dosed a tad too much. I also added Tropic Marin nitrifying bacteria. There are diatoms on the sand and rocks, green algae on the tank's walls.
Am I on the right track or do I need to do a huge water change? Would really appreciate it to have feedbacks.
Thank you very much gurus.
