I'm going crazy with the possibilities running through my mind.. Two things happening in my tank right now.
First I went to do my routine water tests and found I have a major spike in my nitrates. So not cool! Don't know why. My ammonia is perfect ph is too. Don't understand that at all. Even did the tests twice just to be sure. So I did a pwc of 50% (I run R/O in my tanks) and I'm going to keep checking the nitrate levels. Probably do a 25% in another day? Or will that be too much?
Second I bought some cardinal tetras to increase my school four days ago and tonight I noticed white spots all over all of my fish except 3 raspboras. I'm worried my tank may have ich??
Tank is a 46 gal hexagon
Running whisper filter for a 60gal
Reverse osmosis water
I do regular testing and water changes
Homes
Three rams
One spotted cat
10 tetras
3 raspboras
Any input would be greatly appreciated as my husbands words of wisdom aren't cutting it right now. He says wait four more days and flush em.
I'm sick with worry, he doesn't get it. I don't want to lose all my lil fishies :-(
