Hi,
Well my 75 gal tank has been up and running now for about a month now.
My Ammonia =0 , NitrItes = 0 however the NitrAtes = 30.
I have done two 50% water changes and two 10 % water changes.
The new saltwater is at the same temp, SG and ph and test out as 0 NitrAtes.
I add it to the tank, wait about 12-24 hours and do my water tests on the NitrAtes and its still at 30 or so.
What is making the NitrAtes stay at such high levels even though I'm doing the water changes ?
I have no livestock, just some live rock and non-live sand.
Thanks
onnie
