Ok thanks Gus and what happens after I get the pure ammonia what steps do I tank after I get it?

So if I shake the bottle of ammonia and it makes bubbles its not going to work for cycling the tank?

Ok I have my tank set up with the water circulating through it for about 2 weeks now. I have added start right to the water and I am going to be buying an API Freshwater Master Test Kit, and my local fish store is going to let me buy a used Bio Wheel filter media from then in which I think I am...
