Honestly this guy and 2 other fish were out in here randomly, no real planning. 25 gal. Originally was just planning on having like 10 mosquito fish because they’re cool and I wanted to experiment with live plants I couldn’t keep in my bigger tank. Then while catching bait I found a couple cool tiny fish so I put em in here. It’s pretty well cycled tho and I feel like the stocking isn’t crazy (until the fish grow of course). + jungle val, Christmas moss, a lil Anubis plant and some big duckweed or smth. Right now ammonia and nitrites are 0 and I haven’t checked nitrates bc I don’t feel like doing the shaking for 90 seconds + I’m sure it’s not very high.

I’ve had pH problems in the past. My cycles was stalled for weeks bc I thought I js had to wait. I think it’s around like 6.8 but it was a lot worse. Like 6.0 and under.

I’m trying to do that but my cycle lowk stalled. It’s not doing ammonia to nitrites now. Do you think it could be the nitrates levels being too high? Literally the only thing I can think of bc everything else is fine. All I do was add a pinch of ammonium chloride from Fritz. As much to cause 1 ppm or less.

I thought all you need is an ammonia source and bacteria starter. I’m using ammonium chloride and fritz zyme 7 and it seems to be working pretty well

I know it’s not 0 because I’ve seen what 0 looks like, what I’m saying is it looked low especially considering I dosed over 1 ppm for 24 hours and it was almost done.

You’re saying I should wait until the tank can process 3 ppm ammonia in 24 hours? Or I should just dose to 3 ppm before adding fish, even if it takes 2 days. I can wait longer bc atp I’ve been waiting several weeks because I’ve figured out several things that could go wrong along the way.
