An up date on my nutrafin cycle. saterday i added 2 red honey gouram and 5 tetras. tested today, day 6. hp 8.5 think its bit too high! ammonia 0 nitrite 0.3 nitrate 10 fish look fine :good:

I have wet the back of tank with a spong then placed backgound on, slide my hands all over pushing out the air bubbles just like you would when wall papering, then tape it as edges, it makes the colours brighter and the image very vivid when the tank light is on. vaseline sounds like a good...

Cycle has 3 type of dorment bacteria one that eats debree, another eats ammonia and another that eats the nitrite turning it into nitrate, all these become active once in a tank water so it makes sense your results of ammonia and nitrite are rising quickly after each other, im sure nitrate will...

Well you wouldnt have nitrite if you didnt have bacteria, and its getting higher, thats good, so there must be live bacteria. Thank for your input, i will get a test kit tomorrow and see what mine doing.

Sorry dont know what lfs stands for! how do you know it doesnt work! have you tried it? would love to hear from anyone who as.

not tested for ammonia as i havnt added any, i was going to but guy at auarium shop didnt need to add any ammonium because i used nutrafin cycle, just add hardy fish. The nutrafin bacteria has been developed and engineered to suvive such conitions as a bottle.

Im kinda a newby, i did have tropical fish about 10 years ago and have decided to start again. i have a new 95L tank which came with a bottle of 3 day nutrafin cycle ive read on here how most pro's regard it as noncense, but if it contains high conentrates of good bateria, then why not use it...
