Aquarium Advice Apprentice
i have just started a new tank and am having problems with high nitrites and filter blocking up, i was missinformes when i bought the tank and dint know enough about stocking levels,and also bought, some spieces and WERE SOLD TO ME AS COLS WATER FISH, but infact they are tropical, now i think well i dunno what to do as they all seem to be getting along ok but i think i would like to seperate them into their correct species and living parameters, i need to ID them as i havent recorded what speicies i have and would like to know what i have does ony one know what web site posts pictures and what sort of speices they are and what living parameters they like...........thanks im desperate!!!!!!!!!!
i have to keep cleaning out my filter like 2-3 times a week as it is bloking up and its not from over feeding as i only feed them once a day and it takes them like 90 seconds to devour their food and no scrapes at all and they just love the plants as well yum yum......
i emptied out everything 4 days ago and started again and my water parameters are;
day 3 on cycle
water temp- 25 degrees celcius
ammonia- 0.60
nitrite- 0.50
nitrate- 0.00
ph- 7.3
are these parametees normal?????????
