Thanks for your replies. I am really struggling with the nitrates issue. I have 5lbs of sugar sand for substrate. For rock I have 10lbs of base rock that I seeded with 2lbs of live rock. I have wondered if the base rock doesn't yet have the ability to break down the nitrate.
If you are seeding dead rocks then it might take awhile before they get functional. I would continue water changes until the rocks catch up.
