Hi All.
Finally went out and bought a Fresh water Test Kit (Ammonia, Nitrites, Nitrates, PHlow, PHhigh)
Done the test with results: Ammonia 0, Nitrites 0, Nitrates 0, PH 7.5)
i'm surprised about the 0 reading for the Nitrates, test kit says that 40 and below is acceptable, but is 0 ok?
Could this be a reason why the Neons are dying? No visable signs of disease. Could it be stress due to large tetras around? I haven't seen any attacks on the neon by anything.. but occasionally the White Shirt Tetras chase the Black Widow Tetras.
what could be wrong?
