HI Waterdrop.
So far so good. It's been giving me zeros for both ammonia and nitrites every morning and every night.
I had another question for you. Kind of off the topic but you've been so helpful. Like I said originally the tank is a 55 gallon tank. I was thinking of putting in the following fish. Do you think they will be ok together?
1 blue Knight Lobster (I know this fish might go after the others)
7 Bosemani Rainbow Fish
7 tiger Barbs
It works out (based on the 1 gallon per inch of fish formula) to about 54 gallons. Of course they won't be full size when I get them.
I figured the Rainbow fish and tiger barbs would be too fast for the blue knight. I was also thinking about a redtailed shark (and bringing the barb and rainbow fish each down to 6) but was concerned the shark would spend most of the time on the bottom and would most likely become dinner.
In the past, I've had ghost knifefish and a small saltwater tank with octopus, starfish, etc. so I'm not a true beginner but I would in no way say I was an expert.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks again,
Jennifer
