Hi. I had a ph disaster. So far everyone save the nitrates are alive.
I have a sponge filter in another tank that might help rebuild the nitrates, but it's a sponge filter.
Everything that I have read suggests that it is waaaayy too much disruption for them. I am desperate to not have to re-cycle a 10G with adfs and otos.
I moved a bit of media the other day from the other tank, but whatever good stuff was on it died too.
I am adding crushed coral (no idea how much to use) and have the seachem alkaline buffer to hopefully help with the water in the interim of the coral becoming effective.
Any experience or advice out there? Would be most grateful....
whoever said that this was a stress-free hobby never did it.
