Hello,
I setup a 90 gallon tank and started to let it cycle, but got a great deal on 25 exodons and threw them in there before the tank was done cycling. I checked the water parameters often and kept up on water changes, but just yesterday I noticed some nitirites. The tank has SOME beneficial bacteria in it because i'm getting some nitrates too, but what can I do to help the situation? I did a 50% waterchange yesterday which brought them down a bit, and I can keep doing water changes every day if neccessary. Will the beneficial bacteria eventually catch back up and lower nitrites? What would you do?
Thanks,
Ryan
