I set up my nano 1 week ago and still waiting for the ammonia/nitrite/nitrate to go up... but nothing so far! (0 ppm for ammonia and nitrite and between 0 - 5 ppm for nitrate).
Could it be that it will not go up at all as I started off with fully cured live rock? (18 pounds of the live rock were taken from an established tank and didn't leave the water for longer than 5 minutes.)
by they way..my water change last week with quality salt brought my ph up from 7.9 to 8.2
