Hi Randy,

This question is in regards to you article about nitrite. I am about to get a 4" purple tang and have a ht for him that has the correct amount of cupramine in it. It's been running for a while but the water is a little green. No ammonia is present but there is nitrite present. Not having the API chart in front of me i believe the level is at 1. Based on the article it should be safe to place him in there right? This tank has been running for more than month. I haven't been testing it every week but it hasn't gone down to zero. I have been dropping food in every couple of days to keep the cycle going.
