I no longer have that. Learned from researching that they needed more space. Again. Knew nothing other than what petsmart told me, which was nothing 😢 sold me tank and fish then sent me packing lol. I’ve learned so much since then I now have a 36 gallon. Had 6 glo tetras. 4 glo danios and 4...

Thanks. When I started with the 10 gallon I bought 3 glo tetras then a week later added 2 barbs. Few died. Did research and learned about the cycle. Upgraded to 36 gallon. Started water changing once to then 2 times a week. Did add more fish. Never more than 2 at once. Fast forward to over a...

Love this post!

I wish petsmart had mentioned the cycle to me. They just sold me fish. Lost a few in my 10 gallon tank. Started my own research. Upgraded to 36 gallons and here I am 😢

They all died at the same time 😢😢 Right after my 75% water change yesterday. All within an hour The water is new since I had just changed it. I kept the filter going. What is the OP? Sorry lol. I guess I’m trying to understand what I do now with the tank, before adding mew fish. This has...

Tested the water this morning and it read 1ppm ammonia. So sad to see all fish gone. Do I just test everyday until It gets down to 0? Will it get to 0 by doing nothing other than running the filter?

Thanks!! Filter was not blocked. I never turned off other than when doing water changes. Did not lose power. Question.. if ammonia is currently at 2 ppm, which it is, are you saying I should add more ammonia to the tank?

Ok. Once ammonia is at 0, I can add fish again?

Ok! Once at 0 I can add fish, With other level readings where they need to be too? I should keep the filter in? I haven’t removed it. will the ammonia go down by doing nothing other than running the filter?

I have no live plants. I’m confused. Im Currently showing ammonia level to be between 2 and 4. Is that not where I need to be? Do I run the filter and it will eventually go down to 0? Don’t add anything to water? Will I need to do more water changes even though I have no fish.?

Thank you. Ok I have tested water after 75% water change and all fish gone. I have posted pictures. ammonia, nitrite, ph, nitrate

I have no kids or pets 😆 I once had six tetras four barbs and four Danios. Today I killed them all 😢😢😢😢 I will test all levels and post pics.

😢😢😢😢😢😢 they all died 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 Trying to understand how to start over With what I already have. The water was changed today, 75-80%. All fish are out and buried 😢😢😢. The link is so overwhelming. Trying to simply the process in my brain. Please walk me through it. Do I keep the water I have...

I read over the link. I have to now get my ammonia level back up to 3 then what?? This is so confusing.

I am down to 1 fish. Only thing I did different was use a different water conditioner as in picture. Top fin to API 😢 If this last one doesn’t pull Through, I’ll go pick up the ammonia 😢😢😢😢

Omg. Is that cleaning ammonia??? 😳😳

I am sure I do. It’s purchased at a hardware store? This Just keeps getting better ha ha

Bottled ammonia? Where do I get that? Will I need to pour out all 36 gallons of tank water and start over with new water too?

All but 3 I killed 😩😩😩😩 Im Sure they are going too Now it seems I will have to start over. If the last three die, i Will need to figure out how to finish the cycle with no fish in it.

What advice? I’m only telling my story and not giving advice. I’ve been doing nothing but taking advice 😢

I killed all but 2. Im sure they are not going to make it either. Now I have to do what is called a no fish in cycle?

If I’m left with any 😢

Thank you!!!

I do not see where I have done anything differently from all other water changes. The only change I made was switched water conditioner from top fin brand to API. Used same buckets.same faucet water. Poured water in small amounts before adding what’s left at bottom of 5 gallon bucket. I have...

I had 6 tetras. Still have all 6. 4 danios only 1 left 😢😢😢😢😢😢 4 barbs only 2 left 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 All of who is left, looks stressed out swimming weird. I am stressed the heck out!! And this is what I didn’t want to happen 😢😢😢 Ammonia is down to 1 , but 5 fish died in the making. I seem to think that...
