Hi there... I am cycling my tank and for 3 consecutive days I have had 0 ammonia and 0 nitrites.
nitrates are still quite high
I have started doing WC's 2 a day about 25% each change (my seasoning tank is only 15 gallons)
I treat with prime and aerate and bring to temp of main tank (65 Gallon)
my question is can I check nitrates immediately (ok I do wait an hour filter rated at 380 GPH) after WC? it seems to me to be yes since I just removed 15 gallons and replaced with 15 gallon nitrate free?
Seems like I could just continue to do multiple WC's till I get nitrates down
Thanks
