  5. Ammonia Level at 0.50ppm what to do

    Welcome to the boards! Yes, that is what will happen. Ammonia is basically fish waste. This is remedied by making water changes with your tank. Lots of great threads on that here if you look around. Water changes and filtration are your way to get harmful elements out of your tank and clean...

    The world is your oyster. The firemouth is the kink in the chain I think, seems like everyone else would play nice together and you can stock it as a community tank.
  15. My guppy got huge. What's going on here??
