So we have a 28 gallon freshwater tank with 6 neon tetras. The tank is 76-78 degrees. I test the water with API Master Test Kit.
Today the Ammonia is .25
The Nitrites are 0 and the Nitrates are 0
The ammonia has gone up to 1 but is usually low. We usually do every other day 50% water changes but if it stays low we skip a day here and there to try to help.
We added a live sponge to try to encourage bacteria growth but haven't seen any changes.
Am I being impatient or should I be seeing more? We started the tank around 2-25 (almost 3 weeks ago).
Thanks!
Jana
