Hi!
Did you read the link? How did you cycle and what are your parameters (numbers)? Did you fishless cycle with ammonia before adding your fish? I'm just a little concerned you don't fully understand.
Unfortunately I didn't know the importance of ammonia before I started to add fish. I have tested my water weekly. I just did a water change and will test again. Based on the article I could have some work ahead of me. Thank you.

Any more questions don't be afraid to ask!
You will need to test EVERYDAY and do a water change if the ammonia or nitrite are 0.25ppm or more. Do you have a dechlorinator ?
Edit- Don't add anymore fish until the tank is cycled.
Nitrite not nitrate. Those are two different thing. You have to test for all three ammo will show up first followed by nitrites and then nitrates. When you only get nitrates coming up that's mean you are totally cycled so 0 ammo, 0 nitrites and __nitrates.
