Aquarium Advice FINatic
Got home tonight and was told that our Gibbiceps pleco was acting very strange all night. Not really able to stay on the glass and moving along the bottom akwardly. Just did my parameters and came out with the following results:
PH - 7.6
Ammonia - 0ppm
Nitrites - 0ppm
Nitrates - 80ppm......this one is scary.
Did an immediate 40% water change. What would cause such a spike? Thanks
Edit: last week Nitrates were at 0ppm and also, this is a planted tank!
