Aquarium Advice Apprentice
First of all, I have a 125 gallon tank. I started the filters and heaters on Saturday, then added some "bacteria in a bottle" and 7 fish, all 2" or less, yesterday. I figured I'd watch the levels and change water if I saw any spikes, which I don't really expect with such small stock in that size tank. BTW, I used this method to start my last tank and it worked out well. Anyway, I decided to check the levels today just to be safe, and the ammonia was at .25 ppm. At this point, I decided to check the level of my tap water, and, as the title says, my ammonia levels straight from the tap are at .5 ppm(checked it twice). This concerns me because whenever I do water changes, I'll be adding water that is dangerous to the fish straight from the tap. Is there an easy way to take care of this? Thanks for any help.
