no3 is a bit high I would do a 40% water change.

40ppm Nitrate is fine

Indeed its not at toxic levels but I would assume by those levels that there are no plants, so those levels will rise and I like to stick to the safe side.

Did you not test for NH3?

Is there any particular reason you are posting or just check to see if the readings are "normal"?

well im moving fish from my smaller tank to my new larger tank gradually, so im testing it before i move a couple more fish over, but the gh and kh seem a little high to me, but being quite new to this wasnt sure so was really wanting peoples opinions if its ok and if not what to do to sort it

cheers
