Hello from Canada!
I am hoping some more experienced fish lovers can help this beginner out.
We have recently set up our aquarium after years in storage and it seems the first fish we put in are in distress.
We have a 30 gallon tank that has been set up for a week. We put 3 platies in it tonight and I can see their gills turning red. I read this could be ammonia poisoning.
We have tested the water and the test kit says the ammonia is low but pH is high.
I am not sure what to do. I don't want to lose them.
Any suggestions would be greatly apprecited.
Thank you
