ok so i went out and bought a hob filter to get things going better as i didnt think that the little bubbler thing was doing much at all here it is:

okso i finally found some ammonia after a long hard search. the process is FINALLY starting =]]] here are the results for today: PH - 7.6 (added PHdown after) Ammonia - 2.0ppm Nitrate - 0ppm Nitrite - 0ppm

ok great. ill have a look for one tomorrow. if i cant find ammonia what are my other options for a fishless cycle. other than raw shrimp?

yeah that seems like a good idea. i might get one if i can find one cheap. are they reasonably quiet?

agreed. i was going to get an internal filter with a wand but the pet store guy said that this one was better. this is it: SMALLWORLD PUMP & FILTER KIT Tubing and adjustable air valve. Fits ALL small aquariums! Contains 1 each...

i thought that, but now the 4 neons are also dead scott

here, this is for gzeiger:

ok. all the fish were dead by thismorning so i went to the shop and got store credit. when i start my cycle should i restart the tank? ie. new water or is the water thats 5 days old going to be ok? also i had 2 goldies. they died, i swithed to tropical, THEN got 10 neon tetras. they were...

okay. so i have just been out and bought a master freshwater test kit. here are my results: PH - 7.6 Nitrate - 0ppm Nitrite - 0ppm Ammonia - 0ppm hope this can get me more answers! cheers

ok correction. im now down to 4 fish. I began today with 10 neon tetras. 6 are dead. HELP aghh

Okay so I originally had a 10gallon FW tank with a filter that sits inside. (Bottom half is sponge top half is carbon, air bubbles rise through and suck water though the filter...so I am told) I had 2 fake plants, a large log and a small treasure chest. My ph level was 7.6, I had added the tap...

great looking tank! =]

hmm. not too sure. im just starting the same exact thing as my 2 goldies just died after 8 days. I figured that something a little cleaner ie. tropical fish might be a little easier. im interested to see what oher people think.

thanks anoush. your rite, i did not wash out the gravel before putting it in the tank. im just going to have to keep siphoning it and cleaning the filter cartridge until its satisfactory i guess cheers
