Here is what I have in my tank. I have a 20 gallon tank. Now please don't yell at me.
6 platys
6 zebra danios
1 dalmatian mollie
I had my tank where everything was were it was supposed to be. NitrItes were at 0 Ammonia was at 0 Nitrates has a reading of 5.0, and my PH said 7.2 (still fighting the fish store about that one) they are saying its 7.8 I added 3 of the danios and the dalmatian mollie yesterday. And when I did a water change this morning and checked my waters my NitrItes went to .25 and my Nitrates went to 10. Is that because I added the fish? Or because I have to many.

I know PLATYS are baby makers. I plan on just letting the other fish eat them. And what doesn't get eaten I plan on taking them out of the tank.
