Hi
I have a 4ft tank. Sand, rocks, plants and 1 piece of wood (bought from a aquarium shop)
The water has been in for a week now and tested the water today. The ammonium and nitrates are fine but the ph is slighly high at 9. Maybe just needs a little more time to settle.
My question is that i have very small (almost dust) something all round my tank. The only thing i can think of is the rocks. I got them from a beach. They have been boiled for days and scrubbed till my arm aches but is this enough?
Is there anything else that it can be? perhaps still the sand still needs time to settle?
I have a fluval 404 filter so if my tank doesn't clear up then it has to be something in my tank rather than the sand taking time to settle.
Any ideas, many thanks
Matt
