Default Neon Tetra problems already

They only thing I notice is the NO3 reading is a bit high. It's been my
experience usually anything above 20ppm causes issues, especially with
smaller fish such as neons. In the lab, it usually causes organ failure.

===================
It was a bit high. I added some hornwart to soak up the nitrates since I
just did a 90% water change a week before I added the fish. I doubt they'd
get organ failure in a day or two?!?!?! Today about 1/2 of them are taking
some flakes. No Neon's have died.
