that prolly me sammy it goes away after an hour,
so i did a 60% water change last night and it didnt phase my nitrite lvl. wich is confusing me cause ammonia before and after was 0. nitrate 10 ppm to in measurable. (just a guess as it didnt show on test,)
should i be concerned with .25 nitrite im considering doing the rapid nitrite removing method but really creating 220 gallons of saltwater is a pain in but with the amount of containers i have. it took 6 big rubber maid tubs to do a 60% water change.
of course ill do it if water changes are only way to reduce this.
we need a thread for " I should have listened to PufferPunk".

LOL! Yes we do! I was on another forum, where this guy was putting Furan 2 into his gorgeous reef tank, to help out some zoanthids with fungus. I warned him, please don't do this, as adding an antibiotic to an established reef tank with live rock & sand will crash his entire system. He went on to post stunning pics of his tank, even a vid, as if to say, he knew what he was doing. A week later... everything dead... :durr:
