20 gallon long, 78°F, 5 mystery snails, used to be 7 glolight danios but i lost another 1 today so down to 6, 1 mellow betta, 4 ADF and 4 ghost shrimp.
I have been doing water changes every single day but my perimeters are completely whacky. Ammonia keeps going back up to around 1ppm, nitrite keeps going up to 0.5ppm, and nitrate hovers around 5ppm.
I make sure to clean the sand so there is no waste accumulates, there are no dead fish in the tank, and my filter media hasn't been touched. I pull out all the decorations every time i clean. I've done a water change every single day this week.
Am I doing something wrong or what's going on? I don't want to lose any more fish.
