Don't know if it's Bacteria bringing it down or x3 50% water changes the Nitrates havent gone up, is that the Biodigest turning them into Nitrogen ? or the water changes again ?
Arrgh ! I'll add the Chaetomorpha Algae and test again in a few days

Each day there seems to be sumthing new swimming about which gives me sumthing to watch while I'm waiting for the Shrimp tank to 'cycle' over 6 weeks now but getting there, I've added the Chaetomorpha Algae and will get a couple of Zebra Nerite Snails this week to make a start on the Algae and add some 'Bio' load

Hi pentux,
"I wish we could get this in singapore"
Do you mean the ProdiBio Biodigest ? I put this into Google search - ProdiBio Biodigest Singapore - and it came back with - About 933 results (0.41 seconds) - So it seems available everwhere ?
I was stationed at RAF Tengha in the 1960's and lived in Bukit Timah for 2 years :smile:

Getting there, the Nitrite looks to have dropped since yesterday I'm sending off for some Zebra Nerite Snails in the morning I'll put these in for some 'Bio' load
then check all the water parameters in a few days. Then if all OK -----Shrimp 'at last' :grin:

Has this dropped on its own or was it a water change?
