hi
i have 3 freshwater tanks the smaller one which is 10 gallon was recently setup i used some substrate out of a established aquariums and a filter media sponge out of one of the filters from the same tank.and placed it in the new filter
i was unable to get my hands on any ammonia so i used some brime shrimp and flake
its been a week now i took a water reading using api master test kit today
the readings was as follows ammonia 4.0ppm nitrite 0.50 ppm nitrate 0ppm
anyway ive managed to aquire some ammonia from the pharmacy today but i am unsure what amount to add
ive read the fishless cycling thread but because i started to cycle before i got the ammonia and with todays water readings i am unsure as to what amount of ammonia to add to the water
any help would be really appreciated
