That is where I was leaning. Thanks for the input!

I recently received a 60 gallon (I think) tank that needs refurbishing. The dimensions are 30” L x 18” D x 25” T. There are some .5 in there but don’t remember where! I want to only use a sponge filter but I’m not sure how I should set up. I plan on getting an Aquarium Co op one. Should I set up one large, two medium, two small, or three small? I plan on a multi tetra community or angel community. My current tank is a 20 long with one elderly Betta and 9 tetras (slowly building).

Thank you for the suggestions everyone! I will hold off on my water changes. I have been feeding every day. I think I will fast them for a few days and see what happens.

I forgot to say. I have a fluval 50 with coarse sponge, biomax bag, and bag with carbon and zeolite. I also have a 10 gallon size sponge filter with airstone.

I have a 20 gallon tank, my tap water tests positive for .5ppm ammonia. (Chloramines?) my tank is planted the plants are growing and happy. I started with 6 neon tetras and one just died at week 4. I can’t get my ammonia below .25. I’m adding a treatment that binds ammonia every 1-2 days and weekly 30% water changes. I’m now in week 5. Nitrites are zero and nitrates around 30. My tap has nitrates at 20. Any suggestions on if I should be doing something different are appreciated. ph looks like 6.8-7.2. I have trouble matching the colors. Temp 74 degrees
