Assuming don't have fish/corals, one way to test it is to dose pure ammonia; up to 3 ppm. You tank should be able to bring it down to zero within 24 hours.

Usually a tank has not completed they cycle until nitrites are zero. Are you sure of those numbers?

Sweet

Sorry for your troubles...hopefully temporary..... Nitrites must be zero. How long has your tank been set up?

Found a dry hermit shell under my dining table, about 15 feet from the tank, then he poked his claw out. Throw him back in and he just went his merry way. Never happened before

This annoying algae is difficult blow off, comes back within 48 hours or so. Only on SPS; mostly on birdsnest....so far.... Under microscope:

Thank you :)

It has been eye opening. A single drop with a speck of detritus has about 30-40 little guys running around. I have stopped using filter socks. It was catching thousands of these creatures every day.

Mercedes log in a drop of tank water. Anyone know what this is? There is 1-2 of them in every drop of detritus I've looked at.
