Re: My tetras have risen from the dead…
Small tetras are very good at doing that, but I've had larger fish do it as well.....

Re: Are cories seasonal?
They will.
I also keep them with guppies (and a grumpy bristlenose) which also balance their numbers.
I think panda fry are the cutest cory fry as they look just like the adults, whereas most other cories look similar with splotches for camouflage.

Ammonia and nitrite will affect the nitrate readings.

Re: Can you cycle a small tank (fish-in) in a week?
I've always kept neons at 22C, cardinals at 27C with no problems. Anything else will cause problems long-term.
I've always managed to keep them between 5 and 7 years, which is a relatively long time for small tetras.

Re: Hi! New and confused
It's not too bad. That's about 20ppm, maybe a bit less - a lot of people get 40ppm. I'm lucky as it doesn't register much. 20ppm and below is fine, below 40 is ok, above that gets a bit unhelpful for the fish. Some fish, like blue rams and discus do not like it above 20ppm, but most fish are ok with...

Re: Understanding water hardness
Chlorine doesn't affect it (just means you must use conditioner), it'll be the rocks/sand leeching carbonates to raise the ph.
Unless they pop CO2 in to soften the water in the pipes.
Try getting a (clean) glass of water and leaving it to stand overnight and then test that.
