OK, I am having a problem with Nitrates in a heavily planted 55 gallon tank. The fish are doing well. The plants are green. The water is clear. The PH is 7.4, Ammonia is 0 ppm
, Nitrites are 0 ppm
, but I cannot get my Nitrates below 80 ppm
. I have performed a 50% water change 3 days in a row. Is there an easier way to lower Nitrates?
I have 18 tiger barbs and 4 three inch clown loaches. The tank has been established for 4 years.
