I'm wondering when I'll see the diatom, cyano, etc. parts of the tank cycle.
Currently, 11 days into the cycle of a new 75 g with live rock. There is 80 pounds of Caribsea Fiji Pink substrate (not live) and 60 pounds of rock from KP Aquatics.
Reading as of this morning:
Ammonia 0 ppm
Nitrite 0.03 ppm
Nitrate 5.0 ppm
Calcium 450 ppm
Alkalinity 4.0 meq/l
Salinity 35 ppt
Temp 78 F
Phosphate Unknown
Magnesium Unknown
Using Instant Ocean
RODI for all water
Reef Breeder Photon 48-V2+
Reef Octopus Classic 150-INT
Running Carbon in a BRS reactor
55 gallon sump for equipment
ATO
Occupants:
3 small green chromis
many crabs and snails
Thanks!!
