So after 6 weeks, I had not yet gotten any ammonia levels definitively above zero. After a water change, In the next few days I went from 7 to 3 cherries (town says it put a huge dose of chlorine in the water that day). Sucked. And still not getting any ammonia so I went out and got some Xray Pristellas. A-I love them. Very flashy and energetic. The 2 female cherries really like hanging out with them; the male mostly hides. B-after a week, the ammonia is definitely up near 1, and while I've never gotten a Nitrites result, the Nitrates are definitely non-zero today . Messy fish I guess. Paid for 8, but they gave me 12. Gonna have to watch that once I get closer to the tank limit.
