I'm using the same test kit as you, api master kit. The tetras are in the tank and loving it, swimming around happily. I am going to get some clean up crew to help keeping the gravels clean but then ill wait until the cycle finished to add more fish. What do you think?

Hey Tez, Have 10 neon tetras and they are happy out. I had a panda garra too but I lost him a few days ago. I joined this forum to urgently try to help but was a lil too late. Ph is the same reading since I started testing so it won't budge I think. My water source is high on nitrate at between...

I probably killed him I thought you drop them in. Should I take them out of the tank?

I put the net in and wiggled him with no movement so I've taken him out. Really disappointed he's a really cool fish. Should those ferrotabs be under the substrate? Gonna do another water test to see if there has been any change to my parameters.

Hi and thank you. I think he has just died. I did dechlorinate the water. Ph 7.4 Ammonia 0ppm Nitrite0ppm Nitrate 10ppm Do you think he could have eaten ferrotabs for plants? My tank has just is is just finishing its cycle I'm using gravel and a sand substrate
