im using the API for Nitrite and i got my Salifert Nitrate test through the post today....its alot easier to read then BOTH nutrafin and API.I got them, sorta. I ordered five but only two of them got here in one piece. I've emailed the site but they're not answering. I'm glad I paid with Paypal as it means that I'll be able to get my money back that way if the site doesnt get back in touch with me. I saw the photos of all your test tubes, it was mental!
You know, I never got my test kit from that seller! Since I ordered it seems that he's scammed a load of other people too (going by the feedback that wasn't there when I ordered). I have no doubt that I'll get my money back through Amazon, but it's annoying to think that if I didn't have any spare money to have gone out and bought another test kit, my tank would still be sat here doing nothing.
I could see a definite drop in nitrite on tonight's test results (2ppm, whereas it's been off the scale for several days now). Decided to do another half dose of ammonia tonight (1.25ml/2ppm), and expecting to get another 0 tomorrow or the day after, so will go back up to 4ppm then. At present there's 2ppm of nitrite in there, and with the extra ammonia I've added there should be 7.4ppm of nitrite. Once I up my dosage of ammonia to 4ppm, it needs to be able to process 10.8ppm of nitrite in 12 hours, so it's not terribly far off even with the half dose. I wish my test kit could read higher levels of nitrite. I'd look for one that could, but I suspect that if I ordered one I'd be past the nitrite phase by the time it got here

I wish someone would look at my cycle again...i have been dosing to make ppm around 5 on all tanks now as tank 3 has caught up 1 + 2!!
should i drop the dose again...or waterchange??? someone may answer me on here...lol

Are the salifert ones the marine ones? They seem to be the only ones I can find
i think some ppl's cycles do from A to B to C...yours is going the LONG way round...mine...clearly is just sleeping! tut!Okay, AM test results are in. 14 hours after the last test (I needed a lie in!) I got 1-2ppm of ammonia and 2-5ppm of nitrite). It's still not processing the ammonia as quickly as it was before, but I'm happy that it's made a reasonable dent in it and done enough to keep the N-bacs working.
