Low Amonia & Nitrite Levels, But High Nitrate Level

[coldcazzie]

Well, neons need a group to feel safe that's why they recommend 6+ to feel safe.

Honestly, shoaling fish look much better the more you have. There's no beating a giant shoal. If you can't house a sizeable shoal its not fair on the fish really, they don't feel safe in small groups.

I got my Juwel rio 180l off ebay.

I got mine from Aquarist Classifieds, it's always good to look around, and be patient

How many drops do you add into each vile? If I'm not mistaken you should have alot more liquid in each of the viles

I might just hold off till I get a bigger tank then.

Only issue is I need to find a 3 and a half foot tank, cant find one anywhere

A number of LFS can get you made to order tanks to your exact size requirements. Ask around.

Yes and you have to add a different amount of drops to each vile so they shouldnt be level with each other

I can assure you the correct amount of drops were used for each test, im in bed now but I beleive it is 5 for NitrIte test, 20 (combined) for NitrAte test, and 16 (combined) for Ammonia test.

Given I am a NOOB but I can follow instructions
