    I Think My Tank Has Cycled...questions

    I really think I need a bigger tank!  This tank was given to me as a Christmas gift.  It's a GLOFISH tank.  That's what I would like, but it appears that won't be happening due to the high Ph.  I haven't tested my regular tap water just yet.  Our whole house is filtered water.  I would think the...

    I Think My Tank Has Cycled...questions

Thanks for letting me know.   As for the ICH..I did treat for ICH when I had the fish, but after they died I stopped treating.  It's been about a week and half since the fish died.  I'm...

    I Think My Tank Has Cycled...questions

    I think that my 5 gallon tank has cycled. I've had it running for about a month now. When I first started a month ago I added 5 glofish right away. They all got ICH and died.

    New Here And Having A Lot Of Problems

    I'm still cycling the tank.  I haven't added any fish yet.  Someone mentioned that Glofish are too small for a 5 gallon tank.  I don't know what type of fish I'm going to add yet.  The Mollies are pretty though.

    Thanks for all of the advice.   I bought an API test kit today.   The results are....   Ph 7.6   Ammonia 0.50   Nitrate 5.0   Nitrite 2.0   Obviously the tank hasn't cycled yet.   I haven't added any ammonia yet.
