Help!!! For the past 2 weeks I have been struggling with the Ammonia in my 10 gal.
My readings have pretty much been like this:
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 12.5
pH - 6.0
Ammonia - 4.0
What am I doing wrong?? I do daily 20% (at least, if not more) water changes. My only thought is I have been using stress coat during each of my daily water changes, to de-chlorinate; and tonite I was reading somewhere that I shouldn't? Is this right? Can I add untreated tap water to my tank?
I've also been cycling my 15 gal what seems like forever already.
readings are:
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 12.5
pH - 7.0
Ammonia - .25
I want to get some of my fish moved from my 10 to my newly cycled(?) 15 tank... But is it ready???
