Well after going to a LFS in Waco this past weekend the guy there talked me into getting me first fish. He checked my water and said I was good to...
Don't know what mine is yet. I'll update when my meter comes in Thursday.
I'm sure I'll go with Spectrapure filters when the time comes.
I used distilled water to fill my tank. I think that distilled water has a ph of 7. It has come up some on its own. I wasn't using the lights because...
Yeah I have one on both ends pointed downwards. Guess I was creating a tornado. Lol. Oh well. You live and learn.
How long should the filters last ? At about 10 to 15 gallons a week. Also got a TDS meter coming in the order to ?

0.25 is to high ?
The ammonia is between 0.25 and 0.50 on the test kit. Been there since Monday. Can a water change help with this ?
I'm not in that big of a hurry. Just thinking my cycle has stalled for some reason since there hasn't been any change in 6 days.
Great !! Thanks. Thinking I'll go T5 since its proven and LEDs are still new and expensive as heck.
