Ok, great to know

.25ppm ppm - parts per million. Do you have a test for ammonia?

 

[tonedogz]

your ammonia level should be zero

 

[rmiller]

In a cycled tank you will have 0 ammonia.

If you are still cycling your tank you need ammonia to build your bacteria colony.
Cycling with fish keep ammonia about .25 ppm
Fishless cycle can do anywhere from 1-4 ppm depending on the method you are using.
