Aquarium Advice Regular
Hello...so I seeded my new 54 gallon tank with very used filter media from my 10 on Sunday and Prime...I didn't test the water until Tues, I didn't see an ammonia spike but I did have elevated nitrates, only about 10 or 20 ppm and slightly elevated ammonia .25. Nitrites are 0 and ph is low, about 7.0 or 7.2...we have pretty high ph in the tap water so that's low. There's only one little plant so I wouldn't say it's quite planted. It is foggy like a bacteria bloom. Oh and no fish. I am writing this on Thurs, could it really have cycled that fast that I missed the ammonia spike? Should I do a water change? Any expertise is appreciated...Thanks in advance
