Test Results

[Will2]

Just tested my water and the results were

PH: 7.6
AMMONIA: 0
NITITE: 0
NITRATE: 0

Is this ok or not, surely i should have some nitrates, last time i tested the water my Nitrares were at 10.
I have noticed that a couple of my guppies have red gills and one of them has a bent back, anyone know whats the matter?

do you add anything to the water besides dechlorinator?

 

[Will2]

Nope, just dechlorinator

How did you prepare your tank before adding your fish?

ps a bent back is never usually a good sign. Usually fish TB caused by internal parasites. In most cases terminal

What should i treat the tank with for TB?

Tank has been running for around 4 months and just cycled a couple of weeks ago, I had fish in the tank while it was cycling

The lack of nitrates is very odd. Do you have live plants in the tank or some type nitrate removal sponges or media in the filter?

So you did a cycled your tank with fish?

 

[Will2]

Just tested the nitrates and they r back at 10
I must have done something wrong with the first test

What about the TB, what treatment should i use?

 

[mark.w.jones]

TB is genetic and untreatable.
