Hey guys/gals.
Got my puffer tank set up and now I cannot get the ammonia to go down. I've water changed like 20 times and I'm about to rip out the substrate....
10g tank
Established filter from another tank
Live plants
PPS-PRO ferts
API liquid co2
DIY root tabs(suspected culprit)
pH: 7.0
Ammonia: sits at 2.0ppm with water changes it goes to 0.25ppm and won't budge.
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 0ppm because of all the water changes.
I really don't know what to do. If I have to I'll pull the the substrate and rinse all the root tabs out of it. Any other suggestions. The puffer is sitting in the snail culture tank...
