I use prime so ammonia test kits give false readings. I am still showing nitrite, at about a level of 2 or around there. I don't know why the nitrites will not go away. My tank is super clean. I don't see any un eaten food. I don't even see any waste on the sand. The water smells fine too.OscarRobinson;3751888; said:Check your parameters daily for the next week or so. Have you been checking for ammonia?
is this bacterial bloom good bacteria? I did kill my good bacteria Why should I stop the stability? Will this not help replenish the bacteria I killed?OscarRobinson;3753639; said:I would stop adding the seachem stability or anything else for that matter. Prime will give you a false ammonia reading up to 24hrs after the initial use. Do a water change and wait 24hrs then check your ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate. If you have nitrite you may have destroyed your BB and you probably have ammonia too. The cloudy water after it was clear could be a bacterial bloom.
