Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Ok, here is a brief over view of my tank setup. 10 gallons, started cycle March 13 2005 with Bio spira with 2 guppys (1 male, 1 female) At the time the water conditioner I was using was Aqua safe!! I am now using Amquel +. About 3 days later we added in 2 more female guppies and 2 corys. Added a bit more Bio Spira as well when we added in the extra fish. They gave birth. we had only 1 survive (rest ended up as lunch!! Sorry) We feed them twice a day with flakes. On average changing the water twice a week, about 40% at a time, plus cleaning the gravol.
Water reading the past few days:
DATE PH NITRITE AMMONIA NITRATE
11-Apr 7.2 0.2 0.25 15
12-Apr 7 0.5 0.5 20
12 APR 7 0 0. 2.0
(water change)
13-Apr 7 0.1 0.2 10
14-Apr 7.1 0.1 0.15 20
15 apr 7.1 .25 0 15
How does that look?? I'm thinking of doing another water change on saturday (last one done was on 12 Apr) Do you consider the Nitrates/nitrites high?? a bit high Any sugestions would be great!!
