Moved On
Ok, well I use API test kits, and you never know how accurate they are, especially with matching up colors, your never going to get an exact reading.
Ammonia was 0 or close to it
Nitrite was 0 or close to it
Nitrate was thru the roof! Probably 80 or higher, it was pretty red
I've noticed my fish not looking so good lately though. They are losing color and some have a film over there eyes. I think I am going to do the move tomorrow. I have about 60g of new water in the tank, I can add about 100g from the 90g. I have a 30b I can setup as a QT tank. The passer and purple tang will go in the 90g back to my brothers house since the tank and fish are his. My eel will obviously not fit into the 30b, so I guess I can just add him to the 210g? He is VERY hardy. The wrasse (7") and the niger (3") will have to make due in the 30b I guess and get QT. SO I guess I will add all the 90g water over (minus the bottom 2" of yuck) and I should be ok adding the eel over right? I can hook up a cheap skimmer to the 30b QT and I have a glass lid for it so I can keep the wrasse in. I feel bad for cramping such a big fish in a little tank, but its all I have. Or do you think my fish problems will go away if I just put them into the 210g? Any input is greatly appreciated, I need to do something asap, the 90g isn't safe and it has to go since it isn't mine, same with the passer and PT. Thanks.
