NYE Parameter Check

Here are tonight's parameters:

28g

  • Ammonia: 0
  • Nitrite: 0 (woohoo!)
  • Nitrate: 20ppm
  • pH: 6.8

10g

  • Ammonia: 0
  • Nitrite: 0
  • Nitrate: 20-30ppm
  • pH: 6.8

5g Hex

Received a 30-40% water change yesterday.  The nitrites still read as low but not zero yet.  I added filter fiber from the 28g and a sprig of hornwort in an effort to speed up the cycling process. 

The oranda goldfish didn't make it, unfortunately. Confused  I can only assume the nitrite was the issue since everything else checked out fine and the zebra danio and mystery snail tankmates are getting on swimmingly.
