Question about Nitrate Level
Today was PWC day. I tested the water with API liquid before and after PWC. Before the PWC Ammonia was 0, Nitrite was 0, Nitrate was 10 and pH was 7.4. I did a 25% PWC with vacuuming the gravel. After the PWC I tested the water again and the results were the same. I then tested my tap water and the Nitrate was 0. I realize that 10 is not a bad level for Nitrate and there is no reason for concern, but I expected it to have dropped a little. Maybe it did and it was not discernible on the test. Does anyone know of another reason why the Nitrate might not come down? Jimmy McHaney Husser, LA
