Hi all,
I’m looking at getting a Nerite snail but after doing my water tests, I’m not sure my parameters would be suitable.
Can anyone give me some advice on what the best course of action is as I’m being told that I shouldn’t mess with my parameters!?
The conflicting info is driving me mad.
Here are my water test results -
PH - 6.4
Nitrate - 5.0(ish)
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Temp - 23.3
And tested for the first time today with an API kit -
KH - 1 (17.9??)
GH - 2 (35.8??)
I was told I should add some crushed shells or a cuttlefish bone to my tank but then I was also told by my LFS I shouldn’t mess with my tank parameters like that.
I’d love to here from others who might have had this same issue.
Thanks all - J
