Aquarium Advice FINatic
Noticed my Naso was breathing heavy (she's coming on the 2 week mark in QT) and I immediatly check the parameters, Nitrite was off the charts. Mind you this is was daily 5 gallon w/c in a 20 gallon tank. Setting up the tank I used the water from the main, which I had these water parameters: ammonia 0, ph 8.2, Nitrite 0, Nitrate 5 (at the time), sg 1.023, temp 79. my guess is that the tank was beginning a cycling process. How can I avoid this in the future?
