Did you test for nitrites at all, or is nitrates a typo?

It would be a good idea to keep testing for nitrites. I used Bio-Spira in one of my tanks for my betta.
Never any ammonia readings and no nitrites for 2 weeks or so and then nitrites hit the roof. I did a week of water changes and they came down.
Apparently this is the only problem with the Bio-Spira. A few forum members also reported this.
Good Luck!!
