Aquarium Advice Regular
I have a 46g bow front with a marineland 360C canister filter. I have 5 glass catfish, 6 Odessa barbs, 2 Bolivian rams, 3 panda cories and 6 half black plates. I check my ammonia, nitrites and nitrates every week and ammonia and nitrites are always at 0. Today however ammonia is at .50ppm, nitrites still at 0 and nitrates at 10. I did a 50% water change this morning. I haven't added any new fish for about a year. One of my Odessa barbs had dropsy, so I removed her this morning. Could this have caused the ammonia? Haven't cleaned out my filter in about a month and when I do I always rinse in old tank water. Please help
