    Fish-in Cycling

    Ammonia during fish in cycling.

    My first tank and I made the mistake of getting fish before the tank cycled. I've been testing and doing water changes daily, sometimes twice a day. I can't seem to get the ammonia below .25. My question is if I use "Ammo Lock", will the tank continue to cycle??
