So yesterday, I got my new aquarium set up and bought some ammonia for it. Turns out, it wasn't the correct ammonia (it had dye and perfumes in it) so I drained my tank, rinsed it out, and rinsed the substrate as well. Now I have pure ammonia in the tank and it is running smoothly. No bubbles or any sign of the old ammonia.
Some have told me I need to change the substrate. Is this necessary? Or will the long cycle get rid of any unwanted chemicals? Thanks!
