I know this one lol. Just for funsies I stuck a ammonia test in my ammonium chloride bottle and it was a deep blue color, so I would assume your ammonia is very high? I think I've seen people saying that the api tests are inaccurate though.
How is it the possible my ammonia went up?I know this one lol. Just for funsies I stuck a ammonia test in my ammonium chloride bottle and it was a deep blue color, so I would assume your ammonia is very high? I think I've seen people saying that the api tests are inaccurate though.
What was the color yesterday?
Didn’t check yesterday, I was only test around once a week. When I added the ammonia the day after I tested and it was at 8What was the color yesterday?
I’m assuming you’re saying you accidentally dosed 8ppm of ammonium chloride while attempting to do a fishless cycle that you’re 1 week into.Literally only one week, I accidentally added 8ppm and I don’t understand how these levels when up!
This would be your problem. You added a lot of ammonia, causing the ammonia level to be very high.Literally only one week, I accidentally added 8ppm and I don’t understand how these levels when up!
Yeah I thought the same thing but my tank is 230g and it will take a really long time for my rodi filter to make that much water.This would be your problem. You added a lot of ammonia, causing the ammonia level to be very high.
You should do a big water change to fix that. A 75% or so water change should bring the ammonia down to a level that's good for cycling.
NopeDid you add an ammonia source?
I’m not sure you understand what you’re doing here.Nope
Ammonium chloride. About the idk what I’m doing here, your pretty right about that, lolI’m not sure you understand what you’re doing here.
What did you add 8ppm of?
I have seen this blue color with API and attributed it to me somehow contaminating the test solution. Never pursued it further.Didn’t check yesterday, I was only test around once a week. When I added the ammonia the day after I tested and it was at 8
That’s ok. Everyone here can help.Ammonium chloride. About the idk what I’m doing here, your pretty right about that, lol
