I just set my system up on free slurpee day (7/11) and just did my ammonia and nitrite tests this morning. Ammonia is at 8.0 ppm and nitrite is at 5.0 ppm. Salinity is at 1.024. I have 70 pounds of live rock and 80 pounds of live oolite sand. In my sump is some live rock and a filter sock and skimmer. Everything sounding like the system is going in the right track? I have been following the sticky about cycling a new system.
