Hello,
Brand new to the fish game and more errors than I care to count! I set up a 29g around Feb. 22. Waited a few days and added 5 zebra danios. After about 2 weeks had no reading on anything and fish guy kept selling me more. Long story short...
5 zebras
2 beta
5 platys
2 koi angel
2 corys
To add insult to injury, per package inst.) threw out and replaced media cartridge 10 days ago. Ammonia was off charts!. Started daily water changes and fish are still alive. Was advised to add some "Cycle" to help boost bacteria. As of this a.m
ammonia 0.50
nitrite 0
nitrate (I would assume 0, waiting for test kit to arrive)
Anyone with any words of wisdom would be welcome
