Hey everyone:) so searched the forum for how much ammonia to use and ran across a link for a calculator and put my info in and it said 14.2 ml but I just squirted 14 any ways after I squirted it in I thought maybe I should have double checked with you guys first. Lol. Seems like a lot of ammonia after getting a whiff of it :O also how long should I wait to test the water again? Before I added the ammonia the tests were (API liquid kit)
Ammonia .25 (been adding fish food waiting for my husband to get ammonia from work)
Nitrite between 0 and .25
Nitrate 10
Thanks for any and all help ;)
 
Soooo....I tested my water to see what the ammonia went up to and it is at an 8:O
Are my plants going to be okay? I have never kept real plants but decided to give it a try with this tank and I hope I didn't just kill them:/ I know nothing about plants:/ so sorry of this seems to be a real stupid question :O should I do a big water change or just let it be?
