Fish Crazy
Hi I recently bought a figure 8 puffer fish and it was sold to me as being a freshwater tropical fish. After doing some research i found out they prefer brackish water and my fish was not looking great and not eating so i added some salt. before i bought the fish i checked all my nitrite, nitrate, ammonia and PH levels and all were good as i had expected as this tank had been set up for over 8 months previously with cold water fish in untill i moved them to another tank. a couple of days after i bought a load of plants as my fish looked bored and i had read that they need obstructions to stop them seeing from side to sid of the tank. After that my fish started getting worse so i checked my nitrite, nitrate, ammonia and PH levels again and discoverd nitrite and nitrate were terrible!! Could it be the plants?? I have done 50% water changes for the last 4 days and nothing seems to be working!! Please help me as i really dont want to loose my little Puffer!!
Thanks in advance.
