Seriously have searched this topic ad nauseum. Nothing really concrete. Long story...somewhat short. Tank is jbj 28 w/ in tank basket. Added BRS reef saver around 30lbs thursday..got temp and sg right and put 20 lbs carb-sea live special grade in. After that cleared up went to optimum on Sunday and snagged 2.5 pounds of LR to help seed a little more. Did an ammonia test a few hours later and was a hair above .5, nitrites were about 0 from looking down from the open top with salifert kit. BTW they were out of red Sea ammonia kits..so went api. Forgot red Sea amm when BRS ordering. No leaching phosphates as of yet. All tests are salifert except ammonia. Tested today and ammonia seems closer to 1 ppm...perhaps .75ish and nitrite seemed to be about .5ish. Anyhoo...should I add any ammonia or let this thing just run its course for what I have? Temp is 78. Thank you!
