So here it goes again after a long break from reefing. Stop for awhile in the midst of shifting house and also posted overseas for a few months. Good to be back again! Wanted to get something small for my humble house, was looking at Red Sea Max Nano however ended up with the Reefer 170 which i am glad i did.

Going to let the pictures do most of the talking.

Day 1 :  1st March 2018

There are two kinds of bacteria you want to take note of. Chemo-autotrophs and heterotrophic. 

Chemo autotrophs (nitrifying bacteria) are of nitrosomonas and nitrobacter genus, responsible for oxidising ammonia into nitrite and then to nitrate. Commonly marketed as instant cycle products. Using such products at this time makes sense because you are cycling your tank. Prodibio startup fits the description.

Heterotrophic bacteria on the other hand is the bacteria we use for nitrate and phosphate export. I have shown in an experiment that it only works when a carbon source is provided. In my experiment I used biopellets ( polyhydroxybutyrate), but any carbon source would do. The bacteria product used was zeobak. Adding heterotrophic bacteria without a carbon source does not reduce nutrients levels. Also once system is STABLE, I actually see little reason to dose heterotrophic bacteria. The correct term for carbon dosing is actually stoichiometric manipulation of nutrient levels. They key is to raise carbon level rather than focus on the bacteria. 

I hope this clears up your confusion. 

Must be discerning and prudent about what we add :)

Day 7 : Ammonia at 1ppm
IMG_2440.thumb.JPG.83e5da4f21d0fc2253dd7c5c329b627b.JPG

Day 3 my ammonia level was Way up the roof. Seem to be like 20ppm. Should bring it higher, just my 2 cents. Healthier for the livestocks and Better in the Long run
