System seems to finally be progressing.

Ammonia is 0
Nitrites are finally coming down. They are around 1-2
Nitrates are about 5/10

Have been feeding the fish very sparingly while nitrites are high. A small amount every 3 or 4 days!

Oh that sucks man.
I still have one fish that im not too sure if it will survive. It is looking better now than it did a week ago so hoping it will pull through until trout time.
Will be interesting trying silver perch for the first time. Hope it tastes alright :)

Readings yesterday afternoon are looking like im nearly finished cycling.
Ammonia- 0
Nitrites- 0.5-1
Nitrates- 5

Fish still seem too shy to eat floating pellets if they can see anyone.

Not sure if this will work but here is a link to a video on Facebook of the perch swimming around.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10152123863425555

All levels are much better now. Yesterday there was still a slight reading of nitrites.

Fish all seem happier now and am feeding a couple times a day. Hard to tell how much to feed them.

Now here's hoping for some plant growth. Everything seems to have stalled apart from the tomatoes but now that I am feeding I'm hoping that will improve.

A couple are probably around 30cm. Haven't grown a hell of a lot since getting them.

$7 smaller ones and $12 larger ones.
I wanted to buy them larger so they are ready to come out when it's trout time.
