Okay I Had went out and purchased the stability and had added it to my tank (followed instructions on the label). This is the third day of using the product, for it says that i should use it for 7 days after initial treatment. The tanks nitrite levels are still extremly high, looks about 9.0-10.0 on the test strip, and im pretty worried about that. Is there anything I can do to perhaps lower the nitrite levels safley without harming the cycle for the safty of my fish??

p.s. - It says on the bottle of stability that I had to turn off my Light. Is that only for the initial treatment, or for the whole week leave the light off? I do have a window in my room that gives off sufficiant light during the day, but can i put the light on when it starts to get dark in the room?
