I have my first planted 10 gallon tank I've been cycling for 4 weeks. For the last week I've been getting readings of 0 ppm ammonia, 0 ppm nitrite, and 5-10 ppm nitrate.
I impulsively bought a betta fish today and decided to do a water change and test before acclimating him.
After a 50% water change, my ammonia levels are at .25 ppm. I tested my dechlorinated tap water and am also getting .25 ppm ammonia readings on that.
I added some jungle vallesnaria to the tank yesterday.
Whats going on? What should I do?
