The nitrogen cycle works by
-feeding your fish
-fish poops
-poop turns into ammonia bacteria
-then the plants take in the ammonia and turn it into nitrite
-plants release nitrite bacteria
-nitrite turns into nitrate
-nitrate goes to plants and dissolves
-START ALL OVER!
Hi Megan,
ReplyDeleteThe algae pictures are great. Remember tn the nitrogen cycle ammonia is converted to nitrite by nitrosomonas and nitrite is converted to nitrate by nitrobacter.
