I just did 2 50% water changes today and my tests read
Ammonia: .5
Nitrite: <.3
Nitrate: 10
I have had this thing up for two months, and that filter in for probably 6 weeks. There are 4 aquatic plants and a lava rock. It's a 10 gal home to a dwarf gourami, 3 albino Cory cats, a gold inca snail, and currently 2 nerite snails. I have a 3rd nerite in a separate tank after it appeared to get so freaked out it locked itself up for now going on 3 days. I tested to see if it was dead yesterday and it didn't come out of it's shell, but it won't move either. I have been adding bacteria at every water change and use Seachem Prime. I have an ammonia removing media in the filter. Why won't this thing move on from high ammonia already? Why won't it finish cycling?
