Hey everyone,
So I noticed that my tank's nitrates were a little elevated when I put my axies back in their tank from the fridge the other week. I've been doing water changes, but slacked off when they were fridged.
Now, even with NUMEROUS smaller water changes since they've been back in the tank and 2 larger water changes over the last 2 days, and replacing my charcoal filter media as it was due to be replaced, the levels are still running at about 2-2.5, and Audrey's gill and tail veins are very pronounced...but it hasn't slowed her eating down.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I did research, but didn't find any answers other than what I've already done.
Thanks for the help and hope everyone had a great weekend!
