my tank is 45 litres plus. has 2 albino corys, 5 neons tetras, 4 lampeyes and one ram.
lately my ammonia readings have been 0.6 and my pH 5. i started to do 50% water change every 2 days. let say i change the water in the morning then test the water 3 hrs later, it would show close to 0 ammonia and pH of 6. and that very night, the ammonia would go back to 0.6 and the pH to 6. and the next day, the ammonia would be 1.2 and the pH would be 5 again. then i would change the water again and the whole process would repeat itself.
after a week of this, the ammonia is now 0 but the pH is still flactuating. could anyone help me stablize it? thanks!
