I have 72 g bowfront. 2 lg angles,2 cherry barbs, 4 odessa barbs, 2 hatchets, 3 blk skirt tetras, 1 lg pleco,1 glass cat, added in last month (at different times) 5 wht finned tetras, 8 neons. Had trouble with the odessa barb flashing. Was told try water changes which I did. I have test chems that are years old for ammonia and nitrates. I have no idea if their any good. Went to get a master test kit and all they had was strips. I got those even though their not so reliable. OK, I was reading about adding salt to freshwater for all kind of benefits. I also read about odessa barbs and found I should be feeding veggies and meat.(brine shrimp). I have had fish for 40 yrs and never knew 3/4 of this stuff. all though I do remember adding salt if I got ick or something.
