Ok so I have been cycling the tank for a little over 3 weeks now and have a HUGE algae bloom had brown to start then went to a red algae and now its green everywhere my rocks everything the tank looks super cloudy. I have been testing daily and my aminona spiked up high so did Nitrites and then they started coming down and my nitrates went up I am now at amonia 0, Nitrates 0 and Nitrites about .1 maybe .05 its almost at the 0 color but not totally. Also should I now add some clean up crew and I did a small partial water change yesterday and was going to do one tomorrow again. For water changes since I havent got a reverse osmosis machine yet should I use the nutri seawater I have or distilled water? I also am tonight going to order a hydrometer or refractormeter? Which way would you go? I am trying to be patient and just wondering has it cycled since everything is almost at 0 or is it still cycling? I dont want to rush adding cleanup crew but its so cloudy in there I can barely see the rocks just the past few days is when I have gotten the green algae but its everywhere.
