Hi Everyone,
So I,m setting up a 60 gallon community tank, its been almost 7 weeks now and the test readings are as follows, PH,8.2, Ammonia,1.0 ppm, Nitrate, 0.ppm, Nitrate,0.ppm, I,ve done 25% weekly water changes and added API Quick Start two weeks ago but nothing seems to be happening,My temperature is quite high around 86 f. (Very hot here at present),Could that be an issue?,my plants seem to be doing reasonably well, I,m using tap water here which is quite hard (adding Aquacare water conditioner),Should I add ammonia, more Quick start,? to try and speed things up? looking forward to any advice , Thank you.
