I have had my new 110 filled for a week now and I have put a few fish in it so I can try to get is cycled up a little quicker than letting it sit for weeks empty. I took my Fluval 303 off of an established tank and put it on this one to also help things along. I put 5 young fish a few peacocks and a catfish on monday. All the conditions have been stable every day since ie. Ammonia, PH, and Nitrites. I have a floating catfish this morning, not all the way dead but will be by the time I get home from work. The place I bought the fish from has a fish guarantee so I will bring it back with my water sample tonight.
Today I test the water and everything is good. There may be a tiny tiny bit of Ammonia level but the test is hard to read. When I say little it looks between 0 ppm and 0.25 ppm.
My question is, What steps should I take to make sure things do not get all out of whack? I do not know what has killed the catfish. The catfish is only .75 inches, so he is a little guy. All the other fish in the tank looked happy go lucky this morning.
These are all Africans by the way.
Looking for any recommendations of what you seasoned fish tank athletes have to offer.
