your welcome ;)
the nitrates, in this case, are not coming from the ammonia/nitrite break down from the cycle but are coming from the uncured LR that started their...
also, this is not proper use of ASAP
ouch... because you are cycling with uncured LR. This cycle will take forever. You need either A shrimp, OR a small fishy (or two) OR LR. You...

pharmr, you still around buddy? Haven't heard much out of you lately... hope prison is going OK ;)
I used to have a problem with this too... now my system is totally automated and I just go on vacation. If you have the money (since you do have the...

seriously? Before I got my ATO, I'd top off 3 times a day... Test your SG after you top off and test it again X days later right before you top...
add the pods once your ammonia and nitrites are 0. They can tolerate insane amounts of nitrates.
definitely a dendro. several of us have been working to get them open during the day. Mine is now open all night and the actinic hours (not the...
