How long have you had it up and running?

What type of water did you use to fill/top off?

Cycling could be caused from adding uncured live rock, adding too many fish, adding to much food. Taking too much water out with a water change.

the tank has been set up for about a month now,R/O water to set it up. Had a Trigger and a puffer in the tank. the nitrites are very high.lost the trigger, and pulled the puffer, but it may be to late for him.
