Re: Ammonia Levels!

how big is your tank? did you dechlorinate and cycle it before adding fish? doing a 30% water change every other day should help but make sure you let the water set and get to the same temperature as the tank to avoid sending fish into shock.

Re: Ammonia Levels!

Check out this thread...it concerns a nearly identical problem and should help you keep things under control.
