My parameters are:
10 gallon fish-in cycle (day 29)
Ph- 7.6
Ammo- .5
Nitrite- 1.0
Nitrate- >5
Performed 50%wc treated w/ prime after these results.
--Question here is what level is safe level for nitrites. Is it same as ammonia at .25 safe, wc at .5?
55 gallon fish less cycle (day13)
Ph- 7.8
Ammo- 4.0
Nitrite- 1.5
Nitrate- 5
My question about these results is that I thought that my ammonia would go down once nitrites and nitrates showed up. Have not dosed ammonia in about 1 week still at 4ppm. Should I do a water change or just wait till nitrates go up a bit more?
And last question is about this amazon sword plant (in 55g) It is not looking so hot after being moved a few times, it is more brown then in pic. Leaves are very sheer and wilting. Should I remove it or trim it? Is it gonna come back? Only dosing water with liquid c02 once a day .
