Hi guys. My tank went into a cycle again. I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong. I'v had the tank set up for about three months now. Its a 55 gallon and stocked with 7 angels, 1 dinosaur Bichir, 1 apple snail, and 1 elephant snail. Here aremy water parameters..
Ammonia .25
Nitrate 10
Nitrite 1.5
Hardness 75
Chlorine 0
Alkalinity 80
pH 7.2
I tested my tank about two weeks ago and my nitrite levels were at 3.0 and nitrate levels were at 30. I immediately did a 50% percent water change and added dechlorinator for my tap water. Repeated the WC at 25% every day since then and added an entire bottle of prime three days ago to help detoxify the tank. What do I need to do and what am I doing wrong?
