HI, I have a 55 gallon and a friend of my sons gave us his whole
collection of mixed africans. The tank was probably only half cycled
but we had no choice and had to take the fish now. The ammonia after
peaking is now almost down to zero but the nitrites are high. I have
been trying a 25% change every 2 days and today and last Wed did a 50%.
According to the test Im using the nitrites are still way too high.
Checked the water from the tap and almost no nitrites are present. The
Nitrates come down after the change. Any suggestions? What is the
possibility that the tetra aquasafe I'm using with the water changes is
giving me innacurate readings on the nitrite? The fish seem fine, even
getting a lot of color back and a few had small ulcers that are healing
after I took the salt up to 1.5% Any help would be appreciated.
John
