       HI my names is luis,  i am starting in the hobby. i say this
       because a use to have a 20 gallon tank with  3 angels
       17 years ago, they where with me for arround 3 years.  and now i
       bough a 60 gallon tank 2 month ago, and i am really lost. I am
       having some problems. so i been seen the videos from KGTropical
       and i know you guys can help because they say the things has
       they are!  So  i am here to learn. than you!
       Like i said, I have a 60 gallon tank tall, 2 marineland pinguin
       filters, 1 is a 75 gallon filter and the other is a 30 gallon.
       Now, it was stupid of my part not to inform my self before
       starting the new tank. so i did not let the tank cicle complete,
       i know, i know but i am trying and doing everithing i can to
       save my fish. reading doing 50% water changes, using water
       conditioning , etc. at this moment they are fine, they are not
       showing symptoms of amonia toxification or anithing like that.
       some of them have like a month with me and they are fine, they
       are eating, swiming normal.  well the thing is i have been doing
       water test and the las one have me puzzle!
       this is the reult- PH BETWEEN 7.0-7.2 / AMMONIA 4.0 / NITRITE 0
       / NITRATE 0 .  HOW CAN THIS BE AND MY FISH ARE DOING FINE?
       Sorry to post this here, but i did not know where to post it. I
       really need some advise please . I dont whant to lose my fish
       beacause of my mistake.  Than you!

       I would use a capful of SeaChem Prime daily until you see
       ammonia and nitrites at 0 and nitrates starting to go up, do not
       clean your filters until then. Prime makes ammonia and nitites
       unable to hurt the fish but will still show on tests. Good luck,
       and Tank Talk has a facebook page and thats where most people
       are communicating
