water details: according to my test kit: ammonia: 0.5 mg/L Nitrite:0mg/L nitrate: unknown (i dont have the nitrate test kit) i am not an expert on the whole "cycle" thing, but the ammonia and nitrite have been pretty stable( i've had this 130L tank for around 2 month). i've use sponge, rock...

i am a newbie my self, so i cant offer you any specific remedy. however, the most obvious thing to me is that ur PH is too high ( too much toward the alkaline). normally its around 7. for tetras probably 6.5. So 8-9 is too HIGH. i've heard PH is one of the vital issues. hope that will help.
