Amonia is 0. PH was 7.5 and KH was high at 240. I'm doing a water change now. Any recommendations? ??
I noticed my black neon tetras were swimming up top which isn't normal right before the water change.
What do you think about Peat balls to lower the ph? I'm just you tubing things and this seemed non chemical...

I do weekly water changes I'm sorta anal about it but the tank was cycled and crystal clear for over a month and the fish were happy and no deaths. I change the 2 filter pads and now it's clowdy and we are up to 8 deaths now....

Ok so on top of all that I noticed my raphael catfish and a bunch of blackskirts were covered in white spots. Found out it was ich.... I caused this upon them. I researched and bumped my heat to 86°f and added aquarium salt. Needless to say they are getting better slowly but surely and I'm down to 4 black skirt tetras and my two grahmmis. Any other suggestions on treating ick would be a blessing. I've put these guys thru so much!!! Don't wanna add chemicals. The tank finally cycled again yesterday and is looking superb

I thought a bacterial bloom was the tank going through a cycle... I still have so much to learn but I love this new hobby!! Time for more research!!! The people at petco and petsmart are no help at all!!! I feel like I'm teaching them when I ask them questions which is disgraceful! !!
