Until your ammonia and nitrites settle down to zero, you are going to have those high levels as everything is passed down the chain so to speak.

Yea I guess I was just a little thrown by the high Nitrates while it still seems to be in the Nitrite phase.

Got a bigger size (7in) but smaller micron filter bag, amazing difference in water clarity. Cycle has ended, nitrite now at 0 same with nitrates and Ph is at 8. Looking to move some stuff from the nano over today and go from there.. I do have to get new bulbs very soon

Fair warning to everyone following this, mag float pads can get hard enough with time to scratch glass. found this out the hard way. i visited four lfs and noone had magfloat replacement pads so i went ahead and bought a aqueon magflip. it worknok i guess the pad side doesnt seem to work worth a crap but it doesnt scratch the glass.

pics tomorrow ofnthe sweet acro from mfisher (raffle win) also the lepastrea. hoping to get that nano down in a daybor two.
