We had a massive Nitrite spike just after I added the fish I had about 150 fish in this Big tank alone.

Here is some Photos of the water test and dead fish. I took Murray too literally on the 1 Fish per 10 liter of water.

I added salt 3ppt in all my tanks and kept checking the water, but we had deaths for the next week or so, quite depressing.

Were we not talking about this on another thread recently :support:

Sorry for your loss but it was inevitable.

If any one wants to know why some of us repeat ourselves a lot this is one of the reasons why.
