I went to my local fish store today and I talked to the guy at the store about water test kits. He told me that he recommends doing PH and Nitrite tests as these are the two most causes of death in fish. I bought the two kits and my PH was 7 and my nitrites were .8. I did a 50% water change (with a conditioner) and am waiting to do another test. I just wanted to make sure that he was accurate about his information.
According to the PH kit, my PH levels were good and my Nitrites were too high. I did a water change and will do another test later. Any advice, concerns, and/or comments.
OH!!! I finally got a water vacuum. It's a Tom Aquarium Products Vac. It's a hand started vac and works like a charm!! I didn't vacuum the gravel yet. Probably in a few more water changes.
for all of your help!!
