I think I am experiencing my first tank crash here.
So I’ve had my tank running 2 years now problems as you would guess but nothing serious.
Alls been week until this morning. Yesterday I cleaned my skimmer the usual way and replaced some carbon.
Also did some hair algie removal from around some gsp.
This morning a awake to a cloudy looking tank. I assumed my new got stuck in a power head but they all there. All the fish are present. So I reach for my test kit.
Ammonia. 2.0ppm never been above 0 before
Nitrite 0 ppm where it usually is
Nitrate. Between 40-20ppm 5 is the highest I’ve ever had
How has this happened over night and what should I be doing here.
I’ve removed the carbon because that’s the only real change I’ve made along side some ato water..
I am heading for some fresh salt water. 25 litres it’s a 250 litre tank.
Am hoping I can get some advice before I get back so I can have a plan off action.
Thanks in advance
