I change 50% of my water weekly. I went to Petco today to have my water tested. It came back 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and 8 nitrate. The person testing my water said that wasn't good and was surprised my fish weren't dying. I was told not to do weekly 50% water changes but to instead do a 20% water change every 3 weeks. I was also told that I Should have "nitrites, nitrates, and all that other good stuff in my water" Is a 50% water change weekly fine for a 29 gallon? I thought so. I also know that most of the information the person gave me was false.
