For ammonia I use 2 different test kits. one from API and another from interpret.
Feeding 2 days 1 time. Every night on pellets.
Comm tank: 7 AROS, 6 parrots, 2 Tigers and 1 silver dollar.
Tank size: 5x2.5x2x5 with 70% water.
2 x2260 packs with biohomme standard and plus.
Please give comment on the reading below.
I would be glad if you can tell me more as I am a beginner in COMM tank. |
Thanks for posting your reading of your water perimeter.
1) Ammonia.
As we can see from the reading, Interpret test kit read 0.1mg/L and API test kit read 0.25mg/L or 0.5mg/L And from API test kit chart, it show that it is able to read NH3 and NH4. 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.
