Where they at 0 throughout the entire cycle? If they were, then the tank is not cycled.
Yes, it has been completely cycled. Ammonia levels reached 0.25 as of last friday.
Have you tested the tap water? Letting the water sit for any amount of time will not remove chloramine. Please test your tap water ASAP.
Will have to correct myself with this one, talking over with my husband, (guess we are not on the same page here lol) he does use a water conditioner .. Brand: TetraAqua " Aqua Safe" Neutralizer for chlorine,chloramine, and heavy metals harmful for fish.
Unless your tank is really not cycled, I suspect your tap water has chloramine in it. Chloramine will show up as ammonia in most test kits. Buy some Prime or Amquel + and treat the tank water with it. Again, please test your tap water and post those readings.
ok, We tested our tap water as told, everything looks ok, nitrites were high.
What kind of fungus eliminator are you using? Salt is okay, but why are you using algae remover? Slow down on the chemicals you are adding. You may be layering more problems into the mixture.
We are using fungus eliminator by JUNGLE. We purchased that for the fin rot. We added in the algae remover, because we noticed the growth on the inside walls of the tank. Was said on the bottle that it creates a slime protection.
If you do not have a GH/KH test kit, back off on the CO2 until you get one and can post the numbers.
Thanks.. disconnected the Co2.. Will make sure to get the test kit soon.
Besides all of this, the water looks clear, ALgae problem is a least , fingers crossed. Fish still alive
They seem to be swimming much better this morning. Lights go on in 2 hours. Will check on their fins.
Thanks =)
