I'm a little confused as to what to do with my water stats.
pH = 7-7.5
Nitrite = 0.25
A few weeks ago my amonia was up, not sure of the level as the lfs tested it and he said there was only a trace. Tested nitrites today and the level is 0.25. Its been like this for 2 days a little less on the first day.
now this is where i'm confused as to what to do. I've searched through the nitrite posts and there seems to be conflicting advice. Do i do regular water changes or will this affect my tank if it is cycling? What about adding filter aid would this help? Or should i jsut leave it alone and keep testing?
my tank is 190lts stocked with fish and real plants. I have a Fluvel filter.
any suggestions would be great
