I dont know what my issue is with qt but i am falling into this pattern of not being able to stabilize ammonia with water changes.
its a 10 gal with a hob filter and air stone. I currently have a 1.5in royal gramma and a 2in leopard wrasse in there going through copper.
Feeding about 1/4 of a frozen cube of either mysis or other frozen food. At the end i always try to turkey baste as much leftovers out as i can.
using red sea test and ammonia alert badge.
Day 1: ammonia 0
Day2: ammonia 0
Day 3: ammonia off the charts! Gramma looking rough.
- 5 gal water change = ammonia 1.8
- 9 gal water change later = ammonia .8 fish looks better but kinda wanna get them outta there….
decreasing incredibly slow. What am i doing wrong?! Should i get these guys in the DT (source says wrasse was coppered for a week and the gramma at least that)
