I have a 48 galloon, FO, tank and noticed that the ammonia went sky high the other day. This after taking a reading about a week ago reading nearly 0. I have 2 skimmers going and am wondering if 'maybe' I'm feeding too much. I DO feed every day, but NOT that much. I have 4 clowns, a small Blue Hippo, and a Flame Angel in the tank. THEY ARE ALL DOING GREAT!
But I noticed a clown breathing kind of heavy today and thought I would check the water...and sure enough the ammonia was high. Nitrite and Nitrate 0.
I have a RO/DI system for water and change about 20-25% every 2 weeks. AM I FEEDING TO MUCH PERHAPS?
PH reads about 8.5. Is this too high? And if it is, how do I bring it down?
Thanks for any suggestions.
