Fish Crazy
I changed like 25% percent of my water a few days ago saturday morning to be exact. I usually change it every two weeks.
I checked the water this morning and the nitrates looked like they were at like 80 ppm so then I checked it again about 30 minutes ago and it was somewhere in between 50-60 ppm which is still kind high.
I was thinking about doing a largish water change like 40-50%, or about doing like 20-25% water changes for a couple days. which should I do or does it matter?
I have a 10 gallon tank that is well stocked (4 platies 6 WCM) and I was thinking about adding 1 panda corywhich is small but eats the food that falls to the bottom to help clear up the nitrate issue, but would the pee and poo from the cory just raise it again? I'm also going to not feed my fish in the morning or just less in the morning because most of them are sor of sluggish from waking up and don't eat it
Thanks.
