Hi all,
Newbie to fishkeeping and the forum here.
My tank is 30L with 5 Endlers in it. No plants, just manmade decorations. Some snails
Temperature - 25 degrees
PH - 7.2
I did a fishless cycle when it was new and got the water to:
Ammonia 0.25 (this is how it comes out of our tap)
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
My Endlers went in on 21 August.
Since then my readings have been fairly consistent at:
Ammonia 0.5
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 20
I've been doing a 75% water change twice a week since the fish went in. I feed them once a day and give them only what they can eat in 2 mins.
I want to bring that ammonia down so my plan is to do a test and change every day. Does everyone think this is the right approach? Does anyone have anything else to suggest?
Thanks in advance for your help. Loving my little Endlers, they are so colourful and playful.
