Hi I set up a 60L tank 5 days ago - didn't cycle water :-( but am trying to get it right now.
I have two golden albino axys about 6 months old. One is very active and keeps swimming into the walls. I think this might be because he was in a much bigger tank before. The other one is not very active at all. Is this different responses to stress, or different personalities??
Water readings:
Ammonia 1.0
Nitrite 0.25
Nitrate 0
I've been doing 20% water changes daily and am adding StressZyme daily. How long will it take for the biological filter to develop? (Its a second hand tank and filter but was in storage for a while).
The advice I got from the local fish shop was to not feed them for a week. Is this true?
I want to know my little guys are ok....I would be grateful for any advice or reassurance.
