Going through a re-cycle. Ammonia levels are running up toward 1.0 ppm... but not quite. Off to do a water change to get it down. At what level do you all think i need to worry about ammonia poisoning?
Saturday night i did a 50% to try to get my nitrates down and cleaned my filters in water i took out of the tank.. Could that have caused it?
What levels should i be looking for. All the test kits i used before were apparent wrong. (i think) Ammonia should never go above 1.0ppm and Nitrites should never go above 0.50 ppm correct? And also the Nitrates should never go about 20ppm?
