Hemorrhagic Septicemia fixed with Mardel Maracyn-Two but

Posted by mamcroberts NE Ohio (My Page) on

I have recently used
Mardel Maracyn-Two to treat Hemorrhagic Septicemia on my one bala. It said the water would fog on the last days of treatment but would clear with new carbon. its been 2 weeks now and it is not clearing. any ideas on why ? I have tried many water changes and a light gravel sweep. the water was tested and there is in between 0.0 and .5 ammonia. But that seems to bounce in between there throughout the week.
thanks
Mike

Does the test kit also test for Nitites and Nitrates? It nay just need more time for the "good bacteria" to catch up.
