I have an ammonia problem. On the day before or of my weekly water change my ammonia is registering at .25-.5 ppm for the last 2 weeks before that not much if any readings of ammonia also my nitrate is kind of high in the 40 ppm range. It is an Malawi tank with mbuna. I am going to add a aquaclear 110 hob to go along with my eheim 2128 canister filter. Will this help? My tank is a 120 gallon and the current canister is rated @ 156 gallons but I believe the flow rate is 227 gph. I might add some kind of ammonia absorber but i have never had to do that before.
Could someone give me some pluses and minuses about how to attack this problem. I dont want to start losing fish.
