I was rearranging my tank and found a spot that apparently my clown had been feeding. After I was finished scooping out the food and rearranging i tested my water 1hr later and the ammonia was between 1.0 and 1.5 and my scooter blenny was breathing kinda hard. After pondering the situation for awhile from understanding ammonia spikes and ph drop and toxicity of ammonia and knowing the scrubber eats ammonia like crazy. I decided the best course of action was to DO NOTHING.
Long story short after 8hrs ammonia was at .25 after 16hrs it was back at zero. nitrite and nitrate also zero.
I just wanted to share that with everyone.
My scrubber on my 55g has 4x 23w cfl and 175sq inches of screen.
