I don't mind adjusting the PH. But it's annoying... Just want this to be done and over with soon. Tank has been running for 3 weeks and it's done this 2 times already when it otherwise would've cycled a bit quicker and not of run into this mini cycle all the time.

I did a 20% water change after nitrites were at practically 0. This time didn't add ph stabilizer. U guessed it, my PH went way down towards 6 again. My ammonia and nitrites both rised. Not above 1, but I had to add the PH 7.0 stabilizer again and do a slight water change. This is ridiculous and...

But my other tanks PH is fine... It's still weirding me out. Hoping the cycle finishes and I don't need to do anything to the PH anymore and it starts being what it should be. As soon as nitrites go to 0 I'm going to see if I can get away with not using anything for the PH.

Well I used this stablizier PH 7.0 to bring the PH up and it did rise up it's at about 6.6-6.8 I plan on hopefully having future water changes fix the PH problem. Will that be the case? It's cycling quickly now, nitrites are dropping immensely after altering the PH and adding the referidgerator...

Thanks. And it is a fish in cycle. The entire thing is weird, luckily this stabilizer brought the PH up. My tap PH is fine but every time I added it to the tank it dropped to 6. Strange.. I only added some filter floss and some gravel from the other tank. I am thinking of removing the gravel and...

Okay, so there is slight ammonia .25 that reads in tap. I have one tank that's cycled or supposedly cycled nitrites are at 0 tank was running for 2 weeks now with seeded material. There is still a slight ammonia reading of .25 no matter what. Since my tap has ammonia and I use "PRIME" to...
