I tested my water today after doing a water change. My levels have consistently been:
ammonia 0
nitrites 0
ph 8.2
nitrates 10
but now, my nitrates are between 20-40, after a 10 % water change. I haven't added anything new. I did notice when I was doing the water change that one of my clowns was sitting in the corner of the tank breathing heavy but he is acting fine now. What should I do? Do I need to panic over this nitrate level? Should I just do a water change every other day until they come down? :help:
oh yeah it is a 55 gallon tank
