John, I wouldn't do a water change for high nitrites....just the high ammonia. The nitrites are just part of the cycle. Once the ammonia AND nitrites are down to zero, then it's cycled, and you can get part 2 in there. Even if you have no ammonia reading, the nitrites might still be high and the tank not cycled yet.
