May 17th-Water Quality in Aquarium
In our aquarium nitrate has definitely been the hardest part of water quality to control, because with a fish death that spiked up the nitrogen a lot, and the levels have been fluctuating since then. The hardest part about controlling the nitrate is that the only way to effectively make a quick change if the levels are very severe is a water change, which requires a lot of work if done properly. Our ammonia has stayed at a good level for the most part, and if it was bad it was an easy fix to just add in some pondzyme to get it back to a good level. The temperature of our water has stayed fairly constant, and our dissolved oxygen was good.
