Hello, I just got a 46 gallon tank. I've had it for 3 weeks. I have a 2 inch Oscar, 3-1.5 inch Red Blood Parrot fish, 1-1.5 inch chocolate zebra pleco, 1-1.5 blue lobster.
My fish seem happy but I took a water sample to the pet store just to ensure everything was still good and I was told the alkaline levels were just a bit low.
I added aquarium salt and now my NITRITES are off the charts! The water looks cloudy too. I don't want my fish to die! I replaced 8 gallons of water yesterday and re tested and still high. I replaced another 8 gallons today and still high. I just put a solution 24 hours ago to regulate nitrates and still high! And the water still cloudy.
Filtered got replaced because it was so green yesterday. I have all live plants. Help! Nitrites won't go down and water is cloudy. Could it be salts?
