Hi
I was have a look at the LFS today and got asked a question I couldnt answer. The guy has had his tank for 3 months now and he asked me this.
Does Oxygen effect the nitrogen cycle? by this he ment does NO2 break down O2 to make NO3? his point was... if this would help keep nitrates down because apparently ozone reactors help with this and thats O3? so in theory adding more air or using an oversized skimmer would do the same.
We all understand the importance of aeration and how it helps in the aquarium and how low oxygen de-nitrification bacteria help.
guess I'll learn something new today
thanks in advance
