Hi,
I have a 5 gallon tank with 5 zebra danios in it. I have had the fish in it for a little over 2 weeks. I got the water tested before I put the fish. I have the EheI'm pickup45 filter. I have been doing water changes at least once a week and I just recently cleaned the filter sponge.
I noticed even just a few days in the long fin ones have reddish gills. I have 3 long fin and 2 short fins. Up to now two weeks later it hasn't gone away. From my observation, they are all behaving normally and eating well. I have sand at the bottom of my tank if that means something.
I went to the fish shop I bought them at and they said that it is too much ammonia. They told me to do 50% water changes every two days and come back next week to test again. I would just like to get others opinions about it.
I also have been using water conditioner every time I do water changes.
Here is a video with them. I don't know how clearly you can see anything.
Thanks
