I don't know where I am going wrong at the moment, two days ago I did a 75% wc on my tank as something odd was growing on the wood - looked a bit like cobwebs. I removed it and wiped down the sides of the tank and the wood.
Today I noticed a ram in distress and on closer inspection saw she had pop eye, tested the water and found nitrates were at 50! and nitrites were at 0.5, the readings were nothing like this two days ago, nitrites at zero and nitrates around 20.
I did an 80% wc and added Easylife pro filter fluid which has helped, the ram seems a lot better but I don't understand what is going wrong, I am guessing the root of the problem is still there - anyone any thoughts please?
