It s very normal bro.

No3 is the outcome of ur cycling.

So you need to do water change, or bio pellets, reef resh, carbon dosing. ...., many way to remove them.

It will drop to zero after about 2 years maybe? Then your bacteria of ammonia and nitrite would go back to zero... Then when you put livestock in, fishes will die cos there's no more bacteria to convert ammonia to nitrate to nitrate.
