I have a 2.5 gal tank with two male bettas (divided, of course) that I've had set up for about a week I guess...I've been checking the water every day and somehow missed the ammonia spike, but now the Nitrites are off the charts...over 5.0ppm...I did a 50% water change...retested and got the same results...did another 50% water change because my one male seems to be suffering a little from the high levels...retested and tested only slightly lower than before...wondering if maybe test was bad or something, so I tested my 55 gal...test came up 0 for Nitrites on it so...am I stuck here??? Should I just keep doing 50% changes once a day until this level comes down? Can I do another one today? One of my Bettas is taking it like a champ, the other one has been under the weather for the last 2 days.
