So iv been buying like mad and have finally got myself a master test kit as well as additional treatments for the tank should I need them (after yesterday's loss I don't want to be caught out on a public holiday with no fishy medicine again
)
So anyway - my ammonia is at 0
However.... My nitrites are at 2 - I know this is high and plan to do a water change tonight plus clean out the gravel and also add some nutrafin cycle and dechlorinate the water before adding it to the tank.
I have also purchased something called 'Health Guard' by love fish.
Can anyone advise me if it is ok to add this at the sand time as the nutrafin cycle and aqua plus?
Hopefully this will get my water levels to stabilise.
My dalmation Molly looks great very active and feeding well but also plan to starve him for a day or too also to try to get the best results.
Is everything I'm doing here right?
My nitrates are at 20 - what should they be? I know ammonia and nitrites should be 0 but am I right in saying there will always be nitrates in my tank?
Thanks in advance
