I'm sure it's been posted here before...a link to it would be great, please
What exactly should I expect to happen with nitrite, nitrate, ph, etc. for a new tank? The reason I ask is because it's been up and running for a week and a half. Bought a small clean up crew last weekend. Two of the snails have died since yesterday. My nitrite is reading really high, while my ph is really low. Nitrate is stable. alkalinity is in ideal range. I know I'm supposed to be testing, but I'm not sure exactly what I'm supposed to be watching for, or how to fix it. I thought I read the answers to my question somewhere, but it was in a random thread somewhere.
Help? Pretty Please?
