Question #7:

Why is my fish sitting at the surface of the water and gasping?

Ok, so my cyprinodont has been in his newborn tank that has been cycling for 4 weeks now feat on 5. I had quarantined him for daylong sufficiency and did it all correctly. I checked the water parameters everyday for the first hebdomad and digit days before i place him in, and because i hit another cell already established i sped the impact of the cycling, by adding ornaments and stuff same that, that has already got beneficial bacterium on it. One artefact did hit whatever naif algae on it but i don't think there's a problem there. After that i continuing water testing and hit done that quite a few nowadays and there has been 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite and 0 caustic everytime i had proven the cell water. The ph still starts at 7.6ppm straight from the tap and i do ingest dechlorinator which has worked perfectly fine for me, and so farther as i know, i have not had any problems with it yet, and that is the only chemical i use, then when i test it again 2 weeks after it's 8.1ppm. And also i did a 50% liquid change yesterday because i am so concerned, and it didn't really do anything he ease sits at the surface pretty much always. Other facts are that all the toxin levels are set reaching straight from the tap, and i ever let the water climatize for atleast 20mins, and my dechlorinator i use, removes chlorine and ammonia, and has aloe vera and PVP's for the fishes gook coating and protection, and hase electrolytes and detoxifies onerous metals. I undergo i hit put the correct turn of dechlorinator in per litre because i am psycho about my seek getting intoxicated. I also hit a 3 stage top filter, that uses sponge, reactive carbon, 5 bio-balls and 6 bio-rings, and the light bulb i ingest is 5w- E14 bulb, practically everything i have been using comes with the tank. All ornaments are tank safe, and so is the gravel and i clean and clean the gravel good under running touch water, and I had washed everything added in old cell water first before stuff the tank up and change everything on correct at the beginning about 4-5 weeks ago. I do hit a bullet but it is not faulty because i have tested it before i place my seek in the cell and i set the temperature to 24 degrees celcius and because it is season over here and it gets above 26 degrees i notice that the light is not on and also it doesn't feel hearty nearby the heating element, so it can't be the bullet existence faulty as a cause, and i use "Aqua One 7500 Dual Air Pump, shared between the only digit tanks which both have 16litres of liquid in them, the one i am having problems is the digit with only digit guppy in it, and that's all there is, and i do place the tanks together so my guppy can wager another seek when i am not home. The water is decent and clear, there is no signs of disease at all, and he eats straight away. I'm thinking it maybe that the ph is fluctuating, and because guppies temperature conditions are surpposed to be between 21-26 degrees celcius, that and in season here it gets higher than that... that... that's what could also be a doable cause, still i went to acquire an tank cooler for my seek tanks, but they cost to such and and are very pricey on the bill, my tanks are away from leaky areas, and do not receive candid light and are inside, and i exclusive yield the lights on 12 hours a day. I do still add cover blocks that has dechlorinator in them again feat by manual , but doesn't do much... do you conceive this problem i am having is because of modify and ph fluctuating??Because i conceive it is but i meet requirement a good ordinal from someone who knows what it is. And also my expose viscus is on max all the time. Your help and advice is greatly appreciated impart you and compassionate for the long discourse but i thought i would explain everything so as we can pin saucer the problem.
My tank is called "Classic 20L", and the dimensions are L 37cm x H 33.5cm x 25cm W, so the volume is 30,987.50 cm cubed and opencast area is equal to 925 cm squared so there is plenty of room and surface Atlantic for my fish and for dissolved dissolved oxygen to intend into fish tank, and also because the liquid is agitated enough.
