PH : 6.5 ohmy.gif
Added BS immediately, but slowly as HB had mention.

Nitrate same
PH : 7.5


peng you eh, u change your pH from below 7 to above 7 using BS hor, not really good to your fish. No wonder your tub got green water. your filteration system is likely running at very low efficiency, thus green water kick in to take over the filtering.

Go do a 80-90% change and restart everything.

Monitor your pH daily for the next few days.

either u go 100% green water or 100% filter ... have a thought over it.

at low pH, your fish is unlikely to develop well.

with such overloaded tub, do more frequent change.
