All four were going up and down and cruising everywhere.

My water parameters are ammonia nitrite nitrate = 0, 0, and low nitrate

Is this something to look into or are they just playing or adjusting to the tank?

I have a lonely Zebra Danio (yes, the other similar question was me, but I didn't get any good answers to this part of the question so I'm posting it seperately) and I want to put in a Spotted, Leopard, and Pearl Danio. Will these guys school together or do I have to stick with three-four Zebra Danios. People without a clue need not apply.

I had a 5 inch (male) blood parrot and decided to get him a girlfriend who is about half jis size. 55 gallon tank -only these two inhabitants.
First couple of days they looked happy. They dug together and everything was cool.
BUT NOW, he charges her. She hides, he bullies her, doesnt let her eat. She runs and then looks exhausted.
Now she has developed black coloring on tips of fins on top. She also has a dark spot where her genitals are. He looks more proud. But he pushes her and Im concerned.
Fighting or mating?

I am cycling my saltwater tank using a fishless method. My current parameters are as follows: Nitrate - 80ppm; Nitrite - 10ppm; kH - 300ppm; Ph - 7.8ppm & Ammonia - 0.25ppm.

I am wondering in an average how many days before my nitrate goes down.

I like it that bettas are colorful and don't need much space, and I like it that goldfish can be in ponds and get big and are beautiful. Which do you like more, and why?

And please, it annoys me when people say "I like bettas better, because they can live in tiny vases and they are cleaner." It says to me that all you care about is having a fish that is very low maintenence and don't care about taking care of a fish.

I read that a good rule of thumb is watts for every gallon? I have a 29gallon aquarium, so 29-58 watts of light? I find that a huge difference. I also find it especially difficult to find a light with this wattage to be the correct size for my tank. It seems the higher the wattage, the longer the light. But if I go any smaller in size, the wattage is reduced. I also read that 2 fluorescent lights may be used, but my hood will only house one light. My plants require low-medium light, and low-medium growth rate, ph of 6.0-8.0, so they're generally easy plants to look after. I am experienced keeping Angels, but I can't seem to keep a plant alive! I am trying! There are HUGE benefits with plants and my Angels are happier. Every article I read about lighting for plants contradicts another article I read. One article says that the K rating means nothing, and another article's author swears by using 5000-10000K lights. WHAT do I get? Help!

It is a 60 litres (15 gallons) one.
It has:

* 5 neon tetras

* 7 guppies

* 4 glass catfish

* 2 kissing gouramis

* 1 pleco (small)

* 1 platy (very young, was a fry 2 months ago)

* 1 redline torpedo barb.

The nitrite level was always zero, the water is matured with filter bacteria and everything was ok. But recently I get nitrite levels going very high after a 2 days 30% water change...I even change the active carbon foam in less than 4 weeks...I use a gravel cleaner, and for some reason the bottom gets full of poo sometimes, out of nowhere! Is the fish/litres ratio too bad?
It is 4 months already so it is not a new one...and I didnt have any nitrite problems till recently. Also the fish have been added gradualy and I havent added any recently.

We came home with 2 goldfish from a carnival last night. Our past experience has been that they die within 24 hours. The kids seem more attached and I'm wondering what to do to extend their lifespan. Type of water? Food? Space per goldfish?
