10 Gallon Tank Ammonia and Nitrite

[mteverett]

My ammonia and nitrite are 0.25ppm. I’m aware this is not good. I did a big ~40% water change today already. What should I do? I have water that’s been sitting out for a few hours but hasn’t aged for a day yet.

You don’t need to age your water, you can just dechlorinate it and put it in. If your tank is still cycling don’t change water until ammonia and nitrite combined are between 0.5 and 1 ppm.

Can seachem prime be used with other seachem products? What would be recommended? I’ve use nutrafin this whole time

Thanks!

Can I change the water twice in a day? I measured again and combined they were over 0.5ppm. I changed the water 40% again.
