Nitrite is also extremely toxic to aquatic life. Nitrite is formed by the conversion of ammonia via nitrifying bacteria on biofilters. Ideally, no nitrite should be present in aquariums but 0.75ppm is the level where stress is induced. Nitrite is removed from aquariums via the same biofilter and nitrifying bacteria by conversion to nitrate, but this takes time. Nitrite is usually removed via a complete water change.
