I tested my water and my nitrites were 3.0. I then vaccumed the tank and did about a 35% water change. This was yesterday the 5th. It is still reading 3.0 and the water is cloudly. Also my rocks seem to be losing pieces of black particles. I washed them well before I placed them in the tank. Another piece of info, I found my snail dead yesterday when I was cleaning the tank. So what do I need to do to lower these Nitrites? Any info will be wonderful. Thank you
