Is it normal for the water peramiters to change a bit between water changes. I am striving for soft acidic water. I have hard acidic water.
Her are my water peramiters
Nitrate {Day1-10} {Day2-10} {Day3-10} {Day4-10} {Day5-15}
Nitrite {Day1-0} {Day2-0} {Day3-0} {Day4-0} {Day5-.5}
Hardness {Day1-80}{Day2-80} {Day3-80}{Day4-150} {Day5-150}
Alkalinity All Days 0
PH [Day1-6.2] [Day2-6.2] [Day3-6.0] [Day4 6.0] [Day5 5.8]
I need soft acidic water, but have hard acidic water.
SOOO I do a water c change and about 30 minutes later the only drop is the Nitrate which went from 15 to 10
Is it OK that my Nitrate went up on day 5 to 15
Why did my hardness go from 80-150 by day 5
Trying to find out why my PH droped from 6.2 tp 5.8 on day 5
After a water change the following numbers tend to return close to what are liste- but change a little of a 5 day perod. OH my tank is Fully Cycled.
Thanks
