Hi everyone,
I thought I would put up my details so if there is anything alarming, the experts on this forum can provide some guidance.
30Gallon Tank (Running 5 days)
First 2 days no fish just water with filter/heater/air pump also added
3 cap full of Aqua+ and 3 cap full of cycle.
Day 2 readings: PH-8 NO2-0.3 NH3/4-0.25
Day 3 added:
1 Zebra Dino (Wiggly)
1 Red Comet Platy (Milina)
1 Silver Lyretaic Malty (Slidy)
Day 4 reading: PH 8 NO2-0.3 NH3/4-1.5
Day 5 added:
1 Leopard Tuxedo Guppy (not named yet)
1 Red Cobra Guppy (not named yet)
2 Panda Cory (cutie & Putie)
Prior to placing fish in tank added 3 caps of cycle.
I feed the fish twice a day (morning and night) with a combination of flakes, frozen blood worms. Just purchased freezed dryed shrimp and plankton which I will also introduce into diet. Water Temperature average 26-27(C).
The filter is an AquaClear150 with filter and (amrid ammonia remover)
I hope I havent rushed into stocking the tank with fish to quick and I'm hoping the ammonia levels go down shortly. Anyway I plan on water changes once a week and since the tank is a used one (from my brother) I plan on replacing the filters inside 1 by 1 next week. (i've read you cant change all the filters inside all at once.
looking forward to some comments and guidance.
