Well , a few weeks into the cycle now...used fully cured live rock and some media from another tank......For the last 3 days my levels have been sitting at
Ammonia : 0
Nitrite : 0
Nitrate : 5PPM
PH : 8.2 to 8.4.... Colors so close on test kit hard for my eyes to tell hahhaha
Using API saltwater Master kit
Still have a Diatom bloom and starting to turn To green Hair Algae I think......Is this normal or could something be off??? I also hate filter socks and Ordered 2 InTank media racks.......I don't like the IM ghost Skimmer but found The CadLights PLS 50 Elite skimmer that will fit in that chamber.....Anyone used Cad Lights skimmers before????? I heard algae blooms are close to the end of the cycle.....Is this true??? will I be able to slowly add a cleanup crew soon??? I want to do this right so I appreciate the answers and advice
