levels in tank
Hello,
I have been reading alot about co2 fertilization and would like to put
my $0.02 in.
I just took measurments in my tank and this is the results:
nitrate: around 140; PH: 6.7; nitrite: .1; amonia: 0; KH: 7. From
the charts I have my co2 levels is borderline on the dangerously high
side (28.0) I use a 20-20-20 fertilizer about every 60-90 days when I
add water (from evaporation) seemingly my o2 levels are ok. These
reults just tell me that it's time for a partial water change (actually
time to add water again as I have a wet/dry filter)
Unless i'm overlooking something here is it safe to presume that there
is no need to put co2 fertilization in my tank? Seems to me that if I
did that then the fish would die off.
Would like to hear other ppl's input on this one please.
