Yeah I thought it was strange too, but I've been watching my fish very closely, I tested the tank last night and both ammonia and nitrite tested 0 .. I did double dose but I'm watching closely .. if anything seems out of balance i'm going to change the water right away. But the fish seem to be...

Hey all, just giving an update. I went to a lfs today and the guy was super helpful, he tested my water and said it was perfect and that because my tank has been running for a month it was cycling fine. He gave me "quick cure" and told me to double the dose and not change the water for 2 weeks...

I've tried 3 different types of meds and i don't want to try to cycle the tank if i'm still adding chemicals to get the ick under control, i really am at a loss and don't know...

Okay so I am a new tank owner and I was not experienced at all, I didn't know anything about ph or levels or anything I just jumped right into filling the tank, adding the tap water chemical and adding fish from various pet stores. I believe I have a 30 gallon(bought used)The measurements are 24...
