I think I read that 1ppm ammonia triggers dinos to form cysts.
One beaker of snotty dinos got better (no bubbles or strings) overnight after I put a couple of drops of miracle grow in.
Then I realized it was an ammonia party in the beaker and everything was dead.
Maybe dark+ammonia would kill them. It would certainly make them super unhappy.
Going through with this 14 day trial. 3 days of dosing metro. Would you suggest I stop carbon dosing all together? So far I've cut it in half.
