Fish Crazy
I was testing my water today and I noticed that the nitrites and nitrates are a lot higher than normal and everything else was lower.
My readings were:
Ph-6.4
Alkalinity-around 40 ppm
Hardness-250 ppm(the same, actually)
Nitrite-10.0 ppm
Nitrate-around 20 ppm
I'm suprised my fish are still alive. But, take into consideration that I did this test a little while after I fed them flakes and one big worm.
I need to know how often and how many gallons to do water changes to get the levels back to normal. I have a 29 gallon tank with 3 danios, 2 platies, a pleco, and a crayfish.
