I have a question for the oscar owners out there..
What would you consider high, in regards to nitrates for an oscar?
At another forum I belong to, the oscar keepers there seem to get all panicky at 10ppm nitrates, with 20ppm being horrible.
I'm a weekly, large water changer regardless, but was just interested in some other opinions on this.
I don't think any of my tanks have ever exceeded 5, 10 or 20ppm based on my API master test kit. For me it's nearly impossible to differentiate between the 3 ranges anyway.
Thanks!
