Help. 30 gal. saltwater tank with FOLR, cycling I hope. I can't seem to get my ammonia down below 025. All other numbers are great. I've tested both my well water and spring water before and after adding salt. The water seems to stick at 025 after salted and before I put the water in the tank. Could the testing chemicals be the problem? The ammonia has gone up and I've used chemicals to reduce it but can't break the 025 barrier. I'm doing weekly water changes. Any ideas. What can I do to end this cycling madness. It's been 8 weeks. Oh, I also have a very happy Foxface alone in the tank, two stars and snails. If I have to start over again can I leave them in the tank?
