Well when I tested the first day (the tank was running for about a week before I first tested) it had 0ppm nitrates AND nitrites and 0ppm ammonia. The ammonia has stayed at 0ppm despite me adding BB. I intend on reading some more on that today because although I know I should wait longer than 2 weeks all my tests are consistently safe. I even thought maybe the new filter was removing ammonia and nitrates but my reading told me that's most likely not the case.
No, my tank is 20g but I maybe have 10g or a little more of water in there. I am willing to add more water but I want my driftwood to stick out because I'm planting a terrestrial anubias on it.
So I could add a golden, a blue and an opaline? They don't care if they're not all the same type of 3-spot? Hmm. That could be cool. It might be hard for me to get 2 females and a male because I think the stores usually have quite a male majority. I might be wrong. The shops I looked at already this week had such pitiful numbers so I didn't much to compare to. There was a super dark, think breeding colors, opaline male in one of the shops. Oh I wanted him so bad but I didn't want to kill him with my cycling tank!
*ETA* Maybe a pair would be a kinder choice. An opaline and a golden perhaps for nice contrast of color.
