I currently have a 20 gal QT with a HOB Tetra Whisper with carbon and filter pad and nothing in the tank but some pieces of PVC. I have had it running for over 2 months and have never had anything in it. My problem is that I can't get the the tank to stabilize so I can add new incoming fish to it.
amonia - 0
trites - 0
trates - 2.5 to 5.0
I ghost feed and do water changes once in awhile but the trates still don't budge. Is there something else I can do to get them down? Do I need a better filter?
How does everyone else keep there QT's stable when there is no fish residing in it?
I appreciate any advice you can give me.
