Hello again, I have been having problems with my tank getting started up. I had no choose at the time to use tap water and yes I know it's was not a good idea, but my tap water has a reading of ammonia 0.25. So I went out and got a RO Filter, I haven't gotten it set up yet had no power, so I...

It's been a steady .25 ammonia reading in my tank. I started cycling aug 20th but had to restart cycle. Only reason I didn't check my own water is the person who checked it didn't tell me everything in my water SMH.

The levels have spiked already ammonia went to 4ppm no2/no3 didn't spike to high. I also just tested my water and has a .25 reading of ammonia. This a bad thing that will effect my tank? I'm using tap/public water and I treat the water before I even put in tank.

All I have in my tank is 56lb of live rock and 60lb of sand. I did another test and still the same. Ammonia still at .25 with a yellow tint.

Hello again, my tank is close to a finish cycle "finally" but before I put in any fish or inverts, should I clean out the filter and or change the bio sponge? I have a cascade 700. I have it running when I first had everything set up, but 3 weeks later found out I had to start a cycle sigh, then...

Nitrites and nitrates are both at 0 ammonia as of now is 2pmm. And ok thanks.
