Aquarium Advice FINatic
Well, I'm a few weeks into the new tank... 29g with 30+ pounds LR and LS , my tests are now staying at:
Ammonia 0
ph 8
Nitrate 0
Nitrite 0
Salinity 1.023
Temp 78-79
Is this all good?
What else do I need to test for? I used to take my water and have it tested, never tested myself in the past so this is new for me... I also cycled with a load of damsels way back when, so adding fish after a cycle is also new to me. I did buy 10 (all the had) blue legged hermits today.
The water looks great but I have some brown diatom and a little hair alg. on some of my rocks... whats the best cure for this and how much of water changes should I Continue with until this is cleared up?
Do I just add 1 small fish at a time? How about something to get my sand bed turned over 1st? Good idea?
