ok....i'll start with the one that is confusing me.
the ammonia in the tank is dropping...slowly...but dropping. It started at 3.0 and is now about 2.0 (ppm) over the course of a week. the nitrite is starting to climb however. From 0 to almost .5 ppm. Is this normal??? I don't have a nitrate test, so i don't know what that is. The pH is holding steady at 7.0
-----
2nd question. I have a guppie and a neon that are floating at the surface almost constantly. The neon does swim around alot, abd so does the guppy, but near the surface.
the guppie had fin rot from a bacteria and i treated it, the tail is slowly growing back, but she's moving slowly and, like i said, staying at the surface. is that bad?
-----
simple question....is there a household item i can use to increase the kH? cause it's only about 50 ppm. And if i understand that, it should be near 150.
thnx for any help peeps
