This is now the situation where a conditioner that detoxifies ammonia is beneficial. Prime does this, as does Ultimate. Do the 50% water change...
The issue of changing pH and nitrates mentioned by some in this thread needs comment. In an established aquarium that is biologically balanced,...
Boraras brigittae is one good choice here. A group of at least 11-12. These small "nano" type shoaling species always fare better with a larger...
