Went a brought new fish yesterday. Got 4 guppies 2 red 2 blue. 2 rams. 4 scissor tetras. I already had 8 neon tetras and 2 algae eaters. We added the new fish into the cycled tank yesterday. About an hour later one of the blue guppies had died. So we thought coincidence but this morning...

Ye it has like 4 cartridges in it. I will wait longer then. It's not blocked or anything just looks grubby inside.

Hi my tank is now cycled has been for about a week now. I was wondering if I should clean my filter out now or will it disrupt the tank? Also is it ok to take the whole thing apart and rinse in the tank water or (sorry if this sounds a bit naive) will it remove all the good bacteria I've spent 2...

Hi I've just finished cycling my tank I have 8 neon tetras and 2 brown sucking loaches at the minute and I'm looking to add some more now my tank is cycled. Does anyone have any recommendations? I have a 25 gallon tank. Thank you

Hi can anyone tell me if my tank is cycled by this pic. I think it is. its not the best pic in the world but ammonia is definety yellow nitrite blue and nitrates tinge of orange. I'm doing a fish in cycle on about my 8th week. Fish had ich about a week ago but had no signs of that for about...

The ammonia isn't showing high though is it. So surely it's not that bad. I'm going to do a 20% at least 2moro dinner time.

I did a pwc yesterday going to do another tomorrow. Fish are all swimming around looking healthy. Do you think it's showing nitrates?

Fish in

Have you tried blowing through it see if you dislodge anything?

Would like people's opinions please on my tank parameters thought posting a picture would be the easiest way to show you.

Ah right I see. I'm going to test again in a bit see what comes up

Well I've lost 2 fish since I started cycling. I understand why the ammo and nitrites went up I just not understand why the nitrites have suddenly dropped from 1ppm to 0ppm.

Ye that's what I thought yesterday when nitrites was showing up but now it's reading 0 nitrites. So is it still cycling? Is it normal to fluctuate like that?

Hi I checked my water last night it was ph 7.2 ammo 0.25 nitrites 1ppm nitrates 0. I checked my water today and it is ph 7.2 ammo 1ppm nitrites 0? So I did a pwc to reduce the ammo and its gone back down to 0.25. Is it normal for nitrites to appear then disappear?

I retested my water today and there is no no nitrites is this possible?
