Waste food.?.. .that could well be the problem.....Dont leave any uneaten food
in the tank ...Also test water again...How old is the test kit u have .?? cos
rotting food should send NO2/NO3 of the scale...!!
Only feed what can be eaten in 5 min...then remove whats left over.
Hope this helps mate.

I have been our of the tropical fish game for 10 years, I have just set
up a new tank that had goldfish in, replaced all the internals except
the pump head etc.
I left the tank for a week and then addedd some fish.
Then the problems started, the waste food on the bottom looks as if it
has fungus growing on it, I can email pics if this helps, I have lost
all the fish and I am lost for advice.
I have tested the water and the results are as follows:
Ph 7.8
Ammonia 2
Nitrite 0.5
Nitrate 0

Any advice on what it could be and what could be used to treat this
before adding and more fish would be greatfully appriciated.
