Hello,

This weekend I was informed that there was some recent info that stated
that Nitrosomonas werneri and Nitrobacter weinogradskyi are NOT
the bacteria used in the nitrogen cycle.  Does anyone care to elaborate
on
this info?

Tim Hovanec's popularizations of the work can be seen at

http://www.aquariumfish.com/fish/aqfm/archive/default.asp

in the 1998 May, June, and August issues.  I believe he includes the
citations to the originals, both his own and others.
