Hello, Everyone! I have been away from fish keeping for a couple of years and forgotten almost everything, so I'm wondering if I've just got lucky with my alchemy or if I'm still at the start and nothing is actually happening yet.
Current parameters are (34L Fluval Flex):
GH 180
KH 180
PH 7.5 / 7 (coming down I think because of an almond leaf)
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 40 (up from 20 yesterday)
Ammonia 0
Temp 27 C / 80 F
There is a mild bloom (see photo)
The thing is it's only day 4. Here is what I've been doing:
Day 1
Dechlorinated water in (Seachem Prime)
Seachem Stability
Day 2
A little does of Stability
Tiny bits of ham into tank to push up ammonia
Day 3
A little dose of Stabiity
Added: Moss balls, almond leaf, decor, cleaned pebbles from my garden, 2 plants, red tiger lotus bulb.
3 x Evolution Aqua Pure Balls
Tiny sliver of meat (for ammonia again)
Day 4 (Today)
No Stabiity
2 betta pellets (for ammonia again).
Have I managed to force a quick cycle?
