05:31 - 1 - 40 gallon tank,I seeded with live sand and live rock that came from another tank
13:16 - 2 - Day 8 ammonia is almost gone. My nitrite is now reading 5ppm+ and my nitrates are hovering at around 80ppm. Is this a normal stage of the process and I need to be patient or should I do a water change?
14:34 - 3 -How does Waste Away work to remove the nutrients in Freshwater?
20:16 - 4 -My tank has some sludge looking stuff on the surface- dinos maybe, it scrubs right off and is kinda flaky if that makes sense, it's not attached at all. The tank is an all in one with no skimmer. Would you recommend just refresh or waste way?
23:22 - 5 -Is it possible to just convert over to saltwater by adding the saltwater bacteria?
24:41 - 6 - The Red Sea test kit for my reef tank cycling. The test kit provides ammonia results in NH3/NH4 format. However, the quick guide I'm following on your website indicates a NH3-n/NO2-N measurement? Is there some type of conversion I need to do??
25:57 - 7 -Can I use First Defense in a QT tank that is dosed with copper?
29:36 - 8 - We have also done 3 cycles of the recipe for success of Re-Fresh and Waste-away. The algae gets a little better but then bounces right back. We have struggled with Algae for years!
