cichlidman Fingerling Posts: 23 Kudos: 5 Votes: 1 Registered: 14-Jan-2008 | Hey Man...I am glad to know I am not alone. It is quite frustrating! I am not sure what else I can do I have used everything available in the market that's formulated to reduce Nitrites...nothing, Water changes...nothing, Filter changes...nothing All my other fish are looking OK for NOW . They are eating like little monsters, especially since I am now feeding them every other day trying to reduce the Nitrites. I have seen small changes in one of my other fish...looking a bit sluggish and scrapping his side with the rocks at the bottom of the tank. However eating well and still agressive Let's see what happens. Will kepp you posted. |

cichlidman Fingerling Posts: 23 Kudos: 5 Votes: 1 Registered: 14-Jan-2008 | Well Folks...I see the light at the end of the tunnel I have done Nitrite testing the past 2 days and they seem to be going down to somewhat acceptable levels The results range between .25 and .50 PPM Much better in comparison to the previous readings of 2.0-5.0PPM so definitely some progress The last 2 WC's were approximately 20% each one Monday and one Tuesday. I have added Stability and Aqua Safe for the past several days and it seems to be working very effectively Feeding has been reduced to every other day and I may decrease to every 3 days until I see the Nitrite levels go down futher Will keep you posted! |
