the tank it's self has been set up now for a month. But the fish came from other tanks....I had a few small ones but wanted to combine. Other than the fluctuating nitrite all water levels are ideal. I change the water ora portion of if every week right now because I have been loosing so many...

Right now 3 danios, 1 tetra, 2 alge eaters, 4 Mollies, and 2 guppies

So I started my 30 Gal tank with Alge eaters, fancy guppies male and female, Mollies male and female, 1 neon tetra, and 3 zebra danio's. Well after a few mystery fry and 1 Molly giving fry I have lost just about all of my guppies. I have one active female guppie left and 1 male guppie that...
