Tank has been set up for 6 weeks. Did a fishless cycle. Had our ammonia spike and drop, had our nitrite spike and drop, and now have nitrates. We did a 50% water change, waited 24 hrs, tested again, and added fish. Our levels are at around 0.1 ammo, 0 nitrite, 3.0 nitrate. Temp. is 74 F and pH 8.2 (fish shop is at 8.4). We added 3 black skirt tetra to our 20 gal. They seem very lethargic. Is that just how they adjust? Or am I missing something? They seemed a little pulled around (maybe by the current?) so I turned off the bubble stone and opened the mid-level intake on our Marineland Penguin 150 biowheel. Please let me know how I am doing!
