Hi guys.
If you have replied to my previous posts and you remember me - I would just like to give you a quick update on whats happening.
Okey okey, I'm getting rid of my Canister filter and by this weekend I will have a sump below my tank - I'm moving to the tank off of the TV Cabinet (yes yes I know BAD IDEA...:nono I am actually already runnig a sump with a trickle filter for about a week now together with my canister.
Anyway, my water is 100% fine - although I am not sure whether my Ammonia tests are right. According to my Red Sea test, my NH3 NH4 is at about 0.01/2. Other tests (dip stick) shows 0 though. Question 1, how do I really know? All my other elements are all on 0 and my pH is at 8.2.
Question 2: My gravel is about the size of Rice Crispies. Is there any fish / invert that would clean it? I have a snail and 3 hermits and a cleaner shrimp, but the gravel get a brown color quite fast. Any advice appreciated.
