Exclamation ok took ur advice and did a PWC and.....

I just did a PWC about (10 gals from my 29 gal) and tested the water with my master kit
ph 6.8
nitrites 0.25
ammonia 0.25
nitrates 5.0

I added 3 drops of prime per gal that I added in due to the lack of prime that killed my babies...... the filter (biowheel) was never shut not sure if this is important for you to know, lol

Going to pick up the zebra dainos my friend is giving me at 9 please pray they will be ok

Sorry I missed your last thread, but are you currently cycling your tank or just having parameter issues? Is there a reason you have to pick up those fish now because I would not add anything until you solve the elevated NH3 and NO2?

Thats what I'm confused about also.

Have you tested you tap water for ammonia/nitrites/nitrates?
