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

Ammonia spike occur when many things die, rotten and wipe out during setup.

You don't need any ammonia spike if you don't need to kill anythings.

I setup my 3ft tank without introducing ammonia spike in the process. On the 4th day if no ammonia spike mean setup is smooth.

As long u dose bacteria u won't have ammonia spike

Initial start up, need some form of ammonia for it to be sustainable in Long-run.. thereafter continue dosing bacteria

The IM chaetogrow is a good light with red spectrum to consider.

Hi bro, starting a nano tank too. Want to ask you.. does the stand to put the dosing machine comes with it? If not, where can I get it from?

[fishbeflippin]
