Nitrite-Dropped to 0
Nitrate-Down to 5 (peaked at 20)
PH 7.8

I kept the LR in the rubbermade from Wends. night until Sat. (last week) with a heater and pump. when I put it in the tank on Sat. there was no apparent die off on the rock. Starting about this past Wends. the LR starting dying off and that has continued through today. I have not been running my lights at all so I started that yesterday.

No pods or anything in the LS yet. I check with a green LED light every morning.

Do you mean that the stuff that came on the rock is dying off?
That is normal. I would test your PH when you get your light up and running.

Yes, its the LR that is dying off. Just the green though, not the purple.

I was impressed with the amount of color that came on the LR, and surprised the die off did not occure for a week after I got it. I expected it to happen in the rubbermaid.
