How many fish do you have in the aquarium? It might be overloaded. IP: Logged |

Are you sure it NitrAte or were you checking NirtIte? Generally, NirtAte is harmless, the only thing is does is causes algea to grow like mad. If your fish are acting weird, you can get either NirtaZorb or AmQuel+, both of those will neurtalize it. IP: Logged |

Were you testing nitrate or ph? I am positive that you can not show nitrates on a ph test. ------------------ IP: Logged |
