Hello everyone,
Thought I would share that I THINK my two smaller tanks are coming around. Today, their testing results were as follows:
45 gallon 29 gallon
Ammonia .02 .01
Nitrite 0 0
Nitrate 10 20
PH 8.2 8.2
ALK 7.2 7.2
Phosphate .7 .8
Salinity 1.023 1.024
Going to do another big water change today, hope that will do it!
I am getting ready to set up a Qtank, because from all of my reading, due to the spiking of these two tanks, I should be expecting my fish to now develop white spot or ich, is this correct? I do not want to treat these two tanks directly if the fish do become ill, as I would like to eventually turn them both into reef tanks. When I get much more experience, that is!
Should I really begin to make preparations for this? Everything I have read indicates such a scenario is very likely with hig spiking of ammonia and nitrites. Anyway, thought I would share that my tanks are starting to get a bit better!
Thanks for all the help!
