Hi All
About 2 weeks ago I moved my 32g tank inhabitants into a 130.4g Waterbox, I moved all the rock, water and livestock but replaced the sand with new.
Not had any live stock issues and corals for the most part look good but my water chemistry is a little off. These are my results as of half hour ago
Alk: 7.2
Ph: 7.9
Nitrate: 2.5
Nitrite: 25
Phos: 0.56
Ammonia 0
I have been running Rowaphos in the sump but it's slowly going up, last record was .22, nitrates have dropped from 10 to 2.5 and my nitrites are going up from last recorded 14 to now 25. Did I cause a mini cycle? I have been using microbactor7 thinking it might help a little bit doesn't seem to.
Have several fish inc clowns, royal gramma, gobys and a bunch of lps corals and anemones. They seem ok for now. I did a 20% water change yesterday but should I hold off on more for the tank to establish, anything I can add to it that won't tip it over the edge?
Thank you
Stu
