in no way possible is this cycle stalled. Simple fish disease did kill a fish
I'm talking directly to his question as to why he has nitrite. not why the fish died. Bio filter not strong enough to handle the load.

reasons for the cloudy water: we need to see some getting fixed first, to know if you had the cause all along. a fix is above, we cheat blasted with uv.
installing uv does not boost a cycle meaning cycling isn’t the locus
we collect false nitrite read work threads, this is one.
precipitation?This is a 275 gallon system that has been up for 3 months. Today I found a dead fish, no apparent reason. Zero Ammonia. 2ppm Nitrite. 100 gallons of seawater changed one week ago.
How am I getting nitrite with no ammonia?
Seawater, originally cycled with Dr. Tim's. Never had any ammonia detected. This is my first test for Nitrites.
Also, this tank has always been white/cloudy. Tried Dr Tim's clear up with no results.
Any thoughts/suggestions?
Thanks.
The tank has been up for 3 months. Its cycled. Nitrosomas double population in about 12 hours - so there's really no such thing as a "not strong enough biofilter" once its established.I'm talking directly to his question as to why he has nitrite. not why the fish died.
