I ordered a API Master Test Kit for freshwater, ive lost 3 fish so far, i know there's probably too high ammonia. If I have time today im going to go get the water tested.

ive been slacking slightly on the water changes, i know i just been busy as ****. I am going to just try and start over doing the fishless cycle, i went to my tank today and it looks like another one is hugging the bottom of the tank, i had a friend with some strips at his house and i tested the ammonia, with the strip it looked like it was saying either 0.5 or 1.0 the color was slightly on both sides so lets say .75 for ammonia, nitrates and nitrites were both in parameter, indicating that once again the proper cycle hasnt started.... ugh
I ordered a API Master kit, i just had a friend with some test strips to use just to see whats going on in the tank i have been doing the water changes just not every 12 hours more like every day its not like i have been trying to neglect the fish, i just wont exactly whats going on until i get that kit..
its cool, i wasnt offended, i didnt buy a whole complete water changer just one of those hand vac pump things since i got a window next to my tank i can drop the water out threw there, i want to get a water hose to help fill it, only thing is the one i got now when i bought it it said "non potable" which means dont drin from this hose so id figure id be hard on the fish too so i been bucketing for now, and yea i agree changing it bucket style sucks
yea only thing is my sink is a grip away from my tank my window folds down for cleaning so im think of buying a more fish friendly water hose until it gets cold and invest in a aqueon 50 ft water changer/vacuum
