my tanks been cycling for over 4 weeks. I have a 45 gallon cube, cycling with 40-45 lb live rock. I dosed stability for 8 days. My ammonia and nitrite have been 0 for 2 and a half weeks and my nitrate has been over 100 for that time since. Today I did a 50% water change trying to get my nitrates down and was going to do another tomorrow. I tested my water shortly after and it was still reading over 100 ppm on my salifert nitrate kit. I tested my rodi saltwater I used before it had 0 nitrates. All that’s in the tank is 10 hermits, I have plenty of algae. I’ve been waiting and was hoping this 50% would knock my nitrates down a little but it didn’t. Should I do another water change or what should I do?
