Hello,
I have a 10 gal tank. A Molly (recent introduction) had babies (surprise!) and after 2 1/2 weeks of being completely healthy, they have started dying off. We checked the ammonia level and got the highest level reading. I did a 40-50% change and then a day later another 20% because readings were still high. I put a bit of bacteria that is supposed to help balance ammonia in as well. It is still reading crazy-high. Is there any possibility that my continuing high readings are false? Is there something else I should be doing?
