i have live plants, bog wood,3 plattys, 3 blood hart tetra, 2 weather loaches ive had 4 years and recenty 2 small marble angel fish. my tank has bin cycleing for bout 2 wks and the fish r doing fine apart from a bit of green water ive bin testin my water daly for PH, KH,GH, N02, N04, NH3 and NH4 and hav steady results from all
PH - 7.6
KH - 3
GH - 16
N02 - 1
N03 - 50
ammonia NH3/NH4 - 0.25
and a temp of 25c / 77f
these readings havent changed for a while and are holding stead at the moment. is everything fine or is something wrong as my reading are not changing much. the fish seem fine and i already have a pregnant platty.
i could not do a fishless cycle as i already had some fish to start with which came with the tank and obviously needed to get them in water. the under gravel filter and gravel are new but the 2nd filter on the side of the tank was reuse from a cold water setup just rinsed.
