Fish Crazy
Hi I have a 100l tank with 4 guppies in at the moment, 3 female and 1 male. I can't seem to get the balance right so wondered if you could help.
They spend a lot of time surface skimming near the filter outlet but not a lot of swimming. The filter outlet is breaking the water surface and I do have an air stone but whether its on or not their behaviour doesn't change. There are 2 large java ferns in the tank, java moss and 2 anubias nana.
They all eat fine the temp is at 76.
There is a reading for ammonia and the tank is still cycling after 4 weeks however the PH is 6 and due to the plants I have been advised that it is less toxic due to the plants and the PH being low. I do dose with Prime on occasion to detoxify any ammonia and the tank had a 30% water change a few days ago.
Is it the temp? Oxygen problems? PH?
