Nitrates
July 31, 2008 · Filed Under Aquarium Discussion
Well i dont really understand it but i finally got my nitrates down to around 0-5ppm. I have never been able to get them below 20ppm. Since i lost all my fish from ich and marine velvet i decided to keep the tank empty for a while and try to get the nitrates down. I have done 6 20% water changes in the last 2 weeks and it finally did it. I dont understand why it takes so much of a water change to change so little in the nitrates.
Now that i have to basically start my tank over, im going to start with 2 clown fish and feed them flakes or pellets. I think the frozen food i was feeding my fish had a hand in the nitrate issue.
Hopefully i can keep them down now. Who knows. Wish me luck.
