I have a 30 L superfish qubic
The tank has been running for over 6 weeks and was cycled fine up until last week when i decided to add some JBL manado substrate, some more plants.
I have been dosing with prime to try and keep the fish safe but am noticing low Amonia , high Nirtite 5ppm and Nitrate 80 plus.
I have used Fluval bio enhancer and Tropica root tabs and Tropica specialised.
I just cannot work out what is causing such high numbers.
I am doing 50% water changes once per day but at this rate might need to do x2 50% or 75% a day.
any help would be much appreciated.
