If my ammonia level is 0, do I need to do water change. Trying to do a cycle with fish.
My Fish Babies. said:I would stay on my water change routine. Especially while fish in cycling regardless of ammonia readings.
Oldspice said:My levels are as follows
Ammonia 0
Nitrites 0
Nitrates 0
PH 6.8
Not a lot happening. Have a 165 gallon(uk). Have 3 platy, 4 phantom tetra and 8 tiny tetra neon + 1 bigger tetra neon.
Did a water change yesterday about 30%.
Thank you everyone for your help x
My Fish Babies. said:LOL! Because I am a worrier. I would just know that my aquarium water is ok throughout the day. My disclaimer is that I keep Black Moors and goldfish produce much more waste. I cycled my fist tank Moore in.....and I changed the water almost 2x a day. I was just thinking that if you can prevent a bad reading before it happens go for it.
Oldspice said:I am slowly adding fish every week if things have been going ok in the tank. Think that's what I am supposed to do?
