OH COME ON! So now I gotta go back to Ace Hardware. My Mom won't be happy. But the ammonia they were selling said "danger of poisons and burns keep away from eyes and mouth." that really turned me off. Will that stuff kill my fish if it can burn skin and damage eyes or whatever? If not I will go back and grab so of that ammonia. How much do you suggest I add to the tank? I don't really know how to do a fishless cycle. Librarygirl, I know you have an article on cycling in your signature I will read that
The ammonia I used is the Ace Hardware Janitorial Strength ammonia:
Ace® Ammonia - 15 Pack - Industrial Cleaners - Ace Hardware
It cost about $3 for each bottle. This is used for the fishless cycle only.
Here's a calculator for ammonia (it's about halfway down the page):
