I have set up a new 33 gallon tank, the filters have been running for aprrox. two and a half weeks, I introduced 11 neon tatras and two silver/bala sharks on Sunday the 20th of March. I've been testing water quality since the setup, and the pH has been steady at 7.0, the ammonia was 1.0 until today it's tested at 2.0, the nitrite was 0, now .25, and the nitrate has maintained a steady 0ppm. My question is how do i safely adjust the ammonia and nitrite levels??I heard that even when treating the ammonia levels, it still may test positive for ammonia, how is one to be sure it is really ridding itself of it?please reply quickly as i am very concerned, and want my fish healthy and happy, thank you so much:)
