You may have to dose daily for a week or so.

Keep an eye on it - elevated ammonia means that the cycle is not complete, so you need to be careful not to let it rise again.

i was going to say, he perked up and then this afternoon he was back at it again so i lowered my salinity to 1.024 and put new filter media in and used some prime but nothing has worked today

Dang might have gotten overexposed. filter media absorbs the prime I would imagine. better to add that instant cylce.

I added some startsmart complete for saltwater, how long should it take for it to start working and help my fish or should i use a different instant cycle product?
