Running rampant meaning alot of people have been dealing with it lately, on this forum as well as the other one I belong to.

Great. Run a series of tests and post the results when you can.

pH: 7.2-7.6
Ammonia (NH3/NH+4): .50
Thus isn't good I need a lower pH and a lower ammonia reading right?

Keep the daily 25% + PWC's up , the ammo will lower and don't worry about the pH the fish will adapt to it. Any nitrIte or nitrAte readings? If/when the no2 is 0 ppm and no3 is 10 - 30 ppm then you should be close to, or done cycling.

FYI: When running any meds, remove any carbon from your filter.

gottcha thanks for the FYI and I spaced on the nitrite and nitrate test... Need to get that next time I'm at the store
But foe now I have pH and ammo.
