Hello, new here, and to fish forums in general. I have a 125 gallon freshwater tank with the following fish :
2 clown loaches
2 african leaf
1 fire eel
1 lima shovelnose
1 clown knife
1 brown knife
1 eclipse cat
1 marble goby
1 yellow tail barracuda
2 dozen feeder rosy reds

All these fish were in a cycled 75 gallon and were transferred with 1 205, 206, and 405 fluval canister filters that were all cycled. Also added the plants and rock from the 75 to the 125. But my readings are not doing good. My PH is 7.8 Ammonia at 1ppm nitrite at 1.0 ppm and nitrate at 10.0ppm. So will my fish be ok? I also added a marineland HOB filter rated at 75 gallons for extra filtration and added Instant Cycle by API. I thought with the 3 seeded canisters, plants and decor, and instant cycle id be set. But I guess not? Any suggestions on what to do at this point? I havent started water changes but I think I should?
 
Do a large water change, check everyday this week, may be necessary to do water changes this week. Those numbers aren't that bad, give the BB a chance to catch up. Fish should be fine.
