Default Nitrites won't go down.

Have a 10 gallon tank for about a month. Ammonia spiked and lingered for 2
weeks, then nitrites spiked, ammonia went down 4 days after that. And now
my nitrites continue to be high with no signs of going down. I mean off the
charts. I've been doing small water changes to ease pressure on the fish
(10%). One of my Platties is getting white spots on her tail (I thought the
ich was gone), and I'm moving in one more week. If I had known I was going
to move before I got the tank, I would have waited to set it up.
