Will These Levels Be A Problem?

Well the levels are at exactly the same today so I'll change a bit of their water later. Would just 10% be okay (as I plan on doing it daily) or should it be more than that? I wasn't able to do it last night as there was a lot of building work next door the entire day and I thought the loud noises would have stressed them out too much to bother than any further.

My Red Sea test kit, has 2 pH charts, one is for high, and the other for low.

First i measure with the low, and get a pH reading of 7.6, which is the last reading on the low side ..... since its 7.6, i have to use the pH high level test.... its starting value is 7.6, and when i tested with the high, i recieved a reading of 7.6

This means my pH is 7.6.

The reason for double testing is that if it reads 7.6 on the low side it means one of two things.
Either my pH is 7.6 OR its higher than 7.6, and i need to check with the high test to make sure it really is 7.6

Dont know if that made sense, but thats likely why your test kit has two sides to the chart.

You should probably have two test soloutions too, one for Low pH, and one for high pH.

10% daily is good to start with, just keep testing your water and increase water changes if necessary.

Keep a close eye on your ammonia and nitrite readings. Adding more fish to a tank that wasn't completely cycled is not a good thing to do. Since the nitrite was only at .3, hopefully it was close enough to being finished to be ok. You should still see a small minicycle anyway as the bacteria catches up with the new fish.
