Okay, so I have just started my fishless cycle recently. After a few days, my dad bought a mat for me to put under my tank to prevent my dresser from rusting (the ammonia had not dropped yet anyway). I performed a 95% water change so I could pick up my tank to put the mat underneath it. After that, I tested my water (I use the API master test kit), and oddly the ammonia level was still at 1 ppm. I refiled my tank, and added 1 DROP of ammonia (The ammonia I use is ace hardware brand ammonia) I tested my ammonia 30 minutes later, and the ammonia has jumped up to what looks like between 4 and 8 ppm! Is this okay?
