I'm not so much a newbie but certainly not an expert.
I added 5 very small Neon Tetra to my 30l BiOrb yesterday and today the results from my API test kit are:
Ammonia 2.0
Nitrite 0.5
Nitrate 10
pH 7
I've just done a 20% change using Stress Coat and Ammo-lock (haven't retested since water change).
My test kit is probably as old as the tank so 7 or 8 years old. I've scoured the box but there's no sign of an expiry date, will it still be good??
Also, I've always added Stress Zyme on a weekly basis, is this good practice or not (planning on changing to the Seachem range when I replace my products)?
Thanks
