As explain in our previous post in #8, molecules will becomes less stables and easily picks up by test kits after using Hydra filter.

2) Nitrite and Nitrate.

As we can see from the reading, NO2 read at 0.25mg/L or 0.5mg/L but NO3 read at 75mg/L or 100mg/L We can see that NO2 is quickly accelerated to NO3.

With the above current water perimeter, will you like to share with us your experience after using Hydra Filter and your water condition and the behavior and appetite of your fish as we are excited to know about your experiences, thanks alot.
QH,
it means that it is good that the NO2 is quickly change to No3.
With this fast reaction what should i do?

Ammonia will cause harm to the fish.
Will Nitrite and nitrate cause harm to the fish as well?

if the nitrite and nitrate wont cause harm to the fish, what is the prevention should i take to the nitrite and nitrate?
i was thinking with the Hydra stream, i can reduce WC.

i do not know how to differentiate on the water paramater apart from worrying from the high value obtained from the test kits.

Behaviour and appetite no much different. They still alots, as previous i fed once every day, not i feed 2 days 1 time. to cut down on bioload as my water is still not stable yet.

Please give me advise on what should i take note so i can share here.
