Hi all
I bought my tank (10) on April 14th. I was uneducated and immediately began adding fish. Lost off of them as you may well guess. My ammonia was way toxic.
Anyway here it is May 13th. My water is clear. There is no ammonia or very little (I put in some ammo chips in the filter) and My fishies are about 2 weeks old and swimming happily and are very active and rush to the top when I appear and feed them.
Load:
2 mickey mouse tail platys which I LOVE
5 small zebra danios
1 long fin tetra of some sort
1 sucker fish a.k.a. algee eater
All seem to be doing fine. I will take some water to petsmart and have them test it tomorrow.
My question/s:
1. When do I need to do a PWC since everything seems fine now?
2. When do I change my filter?
3. Do I use the same filter bag and just put in new carbon?
4. Do I need to keep putting in the ammo chips as well?
and
5. Do I have room for any more fish?????
Thanks
