recieved a 96 litre tank with a very good external pump then within one week put in 9 malawi Cichlid and one sucker fish dont know its real name.
(YES I KNOW THATS IS SERIOUSLY OVER FOR A NEW TANK)
I have managed to bring down the ammonia to 0.1. PH is 8.5(which Im told is OK for Malawi Cichlid)
Only the Nitrate and Nitrite has gone crazy it is at its highest possible.
I have done numerous 25-30% water changes but it wont come down.
Please help
Also I bought a air pump and stone for the tank is it possible to put TOO MUCH
air into the tank as it is a powerfull air pump with a 1 foot air stone.
Many thanks
