Also, might I add, that if you don't have the test kits, most fish stores will test your water for you for free.  If you can get test results there, you should try to do so.  Make sure you ask the store for the exact readings for each test they do.

Also, tell us if you have any new additions to your tank, such as new fish or new plants, new filters, etc - and when they were added.

Thanks!
