So my nitrates in my 55 gallon have sky rocketed to 100mg/l. Think that's cause I hadn't cleaned my filter for several years and I hadn't changed the sponges in it. I've since bought some new sponges (I think they are supposed to be replaced every 3-6 months).
I've been doing a 50% water change a few times a week. And I've added some live plants but my nitrates won't go down. I can only use floating plants since my fish I have will uproot ant plants I put in the gravel
