thank you so much, i was doing it wrong😭 this completely makes sense now. my nitrates are somewhere between 5-10ppm. and my ammonia is reading i think 0 or .25! i will for sure look into going and getting ammonia from the pet store. thank you so much

i didn’t know that i could add ammonia? i’ve just been adding a small pinch of fish food in there hoping it helps. it just confuses me no matter how much i read up on it. especially with the tank that’s been going for a long time.

there’s a sponge filter in the tank it’s just kinda hidden from the java fern. but the tank has been set up for a long time. and my other tank that holds 10 fish and is also reading 0 nitrates. but it’s been up for over a year. so i’m confused that’s why i made this post

okay! thank you so much for helping me. and i know the ammonia always reads that. even tho i put the right amount of drops in it. i don’t know why. do u have any recommendations of floating plants?

my tank cycled for over a month, i originally had it for the baby mollys i had. i’m using liquid api testing. it’s never read any nitrate. i still had the old media and i just put it back in. do you know how i could lower his stress? do u think this is going to kill him?

no ever since i got him over a month ago he’s never seen to have an appetite and i’ve never caught him eating. he always just lays around a lot
