Aquarium Advice FINatic
I'm having some death issues this week. 1) i lost a kuhli loach that has been sick for a while. it was an expected death. was never doing well from the second i got it but started struggling with its breathing. 2) next was a tiger barb that i thought was gravid. started pumping gills and i thought maybe labored breathing meant it was gonna drop some eggs. dead! 3) my favorite apistogramma cacatuoides died today. never seemed sick or anything. my girlfriend flushed it before i got home so i didn't see it.
now. i was having nitrite problems. when i was having nitrite problems i was doing very frequent pwcs. at the begining of the week my nitrites started to level off. my ammonia is at 0 ppm my nitrites are 0 ppm and my nitrates are up around 60 ppm all of a sudden. you think thats the problem?
