My Aquarium


Now it’s time for an update on my aquarium again. The fish have been doing well with each other and not fighting. They seem to be hungry everyday though because when my partner and I feed them they eat all up fairly quickly. The filter still works great and blows bubbles constantly. Our plants in the tank are green and alive with few leaves. They gravitate towards the window because of the sunlight. Along with that, the water is clean. However, last week I added more bacteria supplement because the ammonia was a little too high.
            The water was tested today and our results were terrific. The ammonia was a 0.25ppm, while the nitrate was a 5ppm. The temperature was 80 degrees Fahrenheit and no water changes were made. The levels were acceptable for the fish to be living in and survive. Having said this, the fish will not die because of high ammonia and nitrate levels. We don’t have to make any changes because right now, the aquarium is perfect. The fish are alive and the water is clean.
