hey guys,
i made a post regarding my fish disappearing and cannibalism! i got some water tested the other day and my ammonia is VERY HIGH. my rams are doing okay (surprisingly) and i haven't lost anymore fish... but what do i do?
do you think that the ammonia was caused by the rotting fish? or the fish died becuase of the ammonia?? the guy at the store recommended cycle and i reluctantly bought it even though i know you guys say it's crap and doesn't work... i just don't want to lose anymore fish. i feel so rotten. i am not over feeding them, so i really have NO idea what the cause should be . in the meantime, i have put a little salt in the tank? i don't know if this will alleviate any stress but i doubt it. just not sure what to do!
oh also, i just did a water change like 4 days ago over the weekend! what is going on!!! nitrates are fine, ph is 6.5! could probably raise that too but i do'nt really want to add many chemicals to throw the whole tank off kilter. damn!
