My first tropical tank and attempt at proper fishkeeping- day 2
Category: Tropical

Author: SarahF (6:45 pm)
Woo hoo, the horrible blue tinge has mostly gone, the plants seem pleased with their new homes and new mini light and the ammonia level is up to 4.5! The pH has gone up slightly but ammonia is pH 14 or something crazy so I think that's probably normal.

Unfortunately there seems to be a nasty scummy film on the water surface. Given I did very thorough, product free scrubbing of everything, I am NOT amused. I can only see it under the light so it can't be as bad as it feels. Hopefully the filter will be able to sort it out.
