Hi, Once again I started papping my pants cus I wasnt sure what was going on!

I went to work at 8am, and came back at 7.30pm, what had happend is that my timer which turns on the power for the lighting and airpump, my puffer didnt look to well when i got back, he was very dosile and rapidly breathing, I instantly turned the things on manually a few hours later he was fine again..

Is this due to the air and lighting not been turned on, i tested the water straight away for amonia nitrite nitrate and ph, very slight reading on amonia, nitrite 0, nitrate 40, 8.4 ph.. The small reading of amonia is due because of feeding..


thanks ryan
