So I'd like to recap everything that's happened in the past couple of weeks but I honestly cant remember it all. Too much has happened.
With taking a few fish back who I thought attacked others and other fish dying I am now left with
1 Molly
1 Guppy
9 Neon Tetras
4 Bronze cories
1 Clown Pleco
I still have two mollies except today I walked into my house to see the female silver molly with one of my guppies half in its mouth with her shaking it around. He died moments later. So I'm going to give her to the store. That's what brought me down to 1 molly and 1 guppy. I don't know why this happened since mollies are supposed to be one of the most docile fish but whatever.
Now I did a gigantic water change and gravel vac yesterday since my ammonia was still at 0.6 after a large spike(2.4). It was theorized the spike came from me changing a filter cartridge which i learned that you don't actually have to change it (just rinse).
I tested the water today and I'm getting a reading of 0/0/0.....(PH is at 7.5)
Seriously?! What on earth happens now? And before anyone starts saying "Well you obviously weren't cycled", don't. Because it was cycled before adding any fish. Why would everything be 0? What happened?
