Okay, I will see if they have the liquid tests at the store and if not I will order online, how long does it take for ammonium to return to a toxic state or does it at all?

I will I will buy my own ammonia test kits when im there, currently doing a partial water change everyday. Do you reckon its possibility that the guy at the stores readings are bogus, ammonia was definitely in the tank before I did the huge clean and the fish were acting sickly before I did...

I will leave a glass of water out and let you know tomorrow, I will also do an ammonia test at my local pet store too, do you need a test with conditioner in aswell?

Here is the stats for both the tap and tank water as they are relatively the same apart from pH GH 60 KH 0 pH is at 7.5 for tap water and for the tank its at 6.0 Nitrite is at 0 Nitrate is at 20 If you need any more info or I have messed something up just let me know, thanks again guys

There has been a high rate of health issues in rural animals in this area too. I have other sources I can get water from itll just be really inconvenient

A chemical plant is about 2 miles down the road from my house. It is possible these are leaking into our water supply as we live on the fringe of a lake and I could be wrong but most of our water suppliers work from that, im not too sure. Im going to post up the numbers from my test kit soon I...

I will buy a new test kit tomorrow, and post it up. My plants are growing like crazy too, so that must be the ammonia. Is it possible to fill the tank with plants and thatll bring ammonia down? Not as a solution but is it theoretically possible as I am going to add quite a bit of plants anyway...

Yeah, I know its not a quick fix deal just trying to take the heat off my fish until I can get things stable , we have 2 tanks both with ammonia in them we live about 2 and a half miles from a chemical plant and our vets were saying theyve had reports of this happening before. I had stress zyme...

Basically getting an ammonia reading at 4 managed to get it down from 6 ive cleaned the tank out appropriately many times and have done everything I can to drop it. I believe the ammonia is in my tap water and my current conditioner isnt helping, changed to prime and cant tell how much i need...

I have a log in the middle of the tank but I have never saw them rest on it. They have various plants they like to hangout in and they currently look quite content. I had just seen online that they prefer water thats under 7 inches deep which I wasnt sure on because they would build so much...

All three are running at the same time currently

Its about a foot and a half deep. Yeah I have been doing water changes every 2 days to combat it and have been adding API stress coat to the water. What I meant was I had raised the water level higher than normal after a change. Im currently running an external filter and have just put in a...

The tank does have quite a few plants in it and after watching them they seem to have no problem getting to the top of the tank. I have 4 currently and 2 seem to like hiding behind my filter, they are new to the tank and the original 2 did the same for a few weeks is that normal behaviour?

Just wondering what I can do about this problem. Ive bought a 13 gallon tank back in february, its a tall tank so the water level reaches quite high. I know the african dwarf frogs arent comfortable with a high water level so I had left the tank just over half filled. However waste keeps...
