I have been trying to dilute/fix ammonia levels @ 1.0 by doing water changes as directed by any Forum member or Fish Tank 101 guides. My levels would get better then I would do a weekly water change and it went up again.
I finally found why my ammonia got worse after water changes. I tested my Tap Water and it reads a solid 1.0 ammonia level tested many times with same results. I live in North Dallas Suburb and looks like the water treatment does add ammonia.
I stopped doing water changes and my levels in the Tank go down. What would you suggest for my situation so I can reduce it even further or for performing weekly water changes? Bottled Water?, ROI Water, 50/50 mix of Tap and bottled?
Any help would be great please?
