    What to test for.

    You should test for pH, alk, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate for sure. To fix them the best way is just water changes. How old is your tank? IS it cycled, if it is not cycled let it go until it is. Your tank is cycled when ammonia and nitrites hit 0. Then do 25% water change and check parameters. HTH
