Hi everyone, let me start by telling you a bit about my setup. 64 litre tank, has been running for about 2 weeks with the new filter I added the bottled bacteria to the new filter for the first week. It also has the filter from my old tank which was running since november.
I am due a water change tomorrow but I thought i'd test the water and these are the results:
ammonia - 0
nitrites - 0
and then theres this
on the left the PH dropped right down at 6-even though I have the crushed coral in the tank. We have soft water in Scotland has that got anything to do with it? I did hear from another member that stable PH is better than exact PH.
On the right is the nitrates. I have never had a nitrates test until the kit came this morning and that's sitting at 0 too. What shall I do? How can I sort this out?
Thanks in advance.
