I have had him for 7 days. I have never seen him eat anything I have given him.. Ive tried Flakes, sinking pellets (not algae wafers), freeze dried bloodworms, live, frozen, chopped up, and dead meal worms, etc... Nothing is working...he stays glued to the glass, wood all day. Any suggestions?

:/ ill get the ammonia down to 0. Shouldn't my tank keep ammonia at 0 always? I thought if it ever reads above 0 then you're in trouble.

I checked my levels today about just about cried. Everything is messed up now. PH - 6.2 ... Ammonia - 0.25-.50 Nitrite - 0 Nitrate - 5.0 ppm What happened? My tank is collapsing? My fish seem okay

Test today still the same readings. Nitrites haven't budged.

Yep. all of my plants are fake. ^_^ silly Danios.

Gotcha. Yea, the nitrite part is taking forever. Ill do small PWCs to keep the nitrites down without taking too much bacteria. Thank you.

Okay I will leave it another 24 hours and the nitrites should go away on their own?

NH3 - Ammonia - 0

I have had my tank for about two months...not sure where I am at in the cycle. PH - 6.8 NH3 - 0 N02- .25 ppm N03- 10 ppm 3 Zebra Danios, 1 Flounder.

Dark gravel or whatever. Im not actually concerned with breeding them. I am actually watching my flounder go behind them and gobble them up. What a cycle. lmao.

Just making sure. Aside from being the coolest thing they have ever done, I just wanted to make sure they werent in danger. To back up that "easy to spawn" rumor....yea. .no kidding.

Ok so I have 3 zebra danios (2 males, one female) in a 10 gallon. this morning I noticed they were darting around the tank flared up and chasing the female around. they would push her into the glass, driftwood, tight corners, etc. and I noticed clear (almost invisible) eggs falling into the...

yeah the strips are bogus. Ill test tomorrow evening and see where im at. thank you and good night. =]

PH - 7.0-7.2 Ammonia - 0-.25ppm Nitrite - .25-.50 ppm Nitrate - 0ppm My arm is tired from shaking the nitrate bottle too lmao. Gotta get used to the color chart too. some are really close to each other. So there...accurate results and maybe itll help more in establishing my tank :)

I have an API master kit now. 4 viles, 6 bottles. 40 bucks, but nobody told me got 500+ uses out of it -_- (had to get it from a mom and pop fish store) Readings up in a moment
