I think I may be making a noob mistake even though I am trying not to.
I just added 4 gouramis and a kissing fish to my newly cycled 150gal. I've been feeding them a "pinch" of flake food 3 times a day.I have had the fish 1 week. There is never any food left. they devour it. What I do see is ALOT of poop at the bottom and my ammonia went from 0ppm to about .5ppm. I used my python twice to clean the bottom.
So am I doing something wrong? Should I be worried? I added some "ammo lock" with each cleaning/water change. I also tested my tap water and it came up 0ppm for ammonia.
Thanks in advance!!!
