I have had a Bio-Cube 29G for 2 weeks now and I am having some troubles. I will start from the beginning this was what my LFS told me to do. Started with live sand and rock with water from LFS put in a cycle boost waited 3 days then took a sample of water to them. LFS said I could could go ahead and put some fish in so two clown's, fire shrimp, and a few cleaners went in (from what I have read I now no that was probably a bad idea)after a few more days went back to LFS said my levels where good so I added a Watchmen goby and emerald crab aka (The Hulk) I have since lost the emerald crab. I did a 5G water change yesterday. MY levels seem to be all over the place when I test them.
PH 8.1
Nitrates 10-20
Nitrites 1.0 These Levels are my latest they have kind of jumped around.
Ammonia 0.25
Temp between 80 to 82
33 lbs LR
30 lbs LS
Added Protein Skimmer and UV sterilizer.
I do not intend on putting anything else in the tank until everything is under control I feel I have probably overloaded it and stressed the fish. I wish I could start over but yet here we are.
