Problims with my nitrate level

6 months but I chenged tanks 6 weeks ago from 70 to 100 and was told it was 120 and mixed 70 gals of new water plus 4 weeks later added 75lbs of rock

 

Ok fuge is online I used Carib Sea Refugium mineral mud. I went all over town and found no macros but I added a few fuge plants dont know what they are but here is a pic

 

The 75lbs of LR, was it cured? Luna

 

yes I cured it my self almost 30 days in its own tank

 

I think that you may have started a mini cycle some how. Keep on eye on Nh3/4, No2 and No3. Luna

 

I was planing to test every other day did you read the levels in my 1st post that was yesterdays test

 

No, but Im going to now. Give me a min or two. Luna

 

thanks

 

Yeah, thats what I thought. You started a mini cycle some how. Your NH3 is at 0(which is good), your N02 seems to be going down and your No3 should start to decrease also. Just dont add anyhting for the next 2-3 weeks and test for No2 and No3 every 5th day. Dont freak out if your No3 stay at 20ppm. I've had 20ppm for yrs and my tank is doing great. Luna

 

Well I did add that reef mud today and a few fuge plants I was hoping it would help
