Day 16 and no change in Nitrates, still slightly less than 5ppm. I will resume water changes now.
Saltkreep88, I read that happens sometimes. I had bad cyano when dosing Vodka and stopped, this was about2 yrs ago. I read that if you does vodka and get cyano add or switch to vinegar and vice...
I don't mean I will never do a WC again. Just during this initial period. I wanted to see if the nitrates truly dropped from the vinegar. I will re-start my WC schedule again next week.
Is hard or soft when you touch it?
From my experience I have seen something similar in my tank. It was white/yellow with some stripes and turned out to be some type of sponge.
Never caused any problems but cannot be certain from that pic.
I probably should get a new kit. But overall I am happy with the vinegar. My nitrates always hovered at 40ppm and with aggressive water changes I could get them down to 20ppm. I could never get below 20ppm. If I get into the API yellow, 0ppm, I will be much happier. I have not done a WC since I...
Day 11 - 5ppm
It is slightly less than 5ppm IMO. The API kit is hard to read with the colors and goes from 0, yellow, to 5, light orange.
The color is a bit lighter than 5ppm. I am now going to double the dose, starting today
will be 2ml daily.
Thanks. I have not paid yet. I did hit "commit to buy" and it is stuck in my shopping cart. I was able to move it to "save for a later date". It seems to be a store so I don't see why I cannot switch and then pay the new price. If all I get is negative feedback, big deal, I order once a year at...
Okay, enough from the peanut gallery.
It seems I have to wait for the seller to decide this. Since I selected I confirm to buy its a legal contract I cannot get out of unless seller agrees.
I went to order something off e-Bay and selected buy it now but it wouldn't come until after XMAS. I then found something else that will come before XMAS but I cannot remove the first item when I check out. I have tried contacting the seller as they are selling both items and no answer yet. Any...
Day 7 - 5ppm
After 1 week at 1ml daily. I will continue at this rate and see if it goes lower. Have not seen any adverse affects on corals and no algae outbreaks.
