So just for clarification,
My fishless tank is easily processing 3-4ppm of ammonia in 12 hrs ( actually a bit quicker) and was curious.
Should I raise it back up right away or just dose the ammonia once a day?
I'm assuming once a day due to this line
I do have Nitrites and Nitrates off the chart so that is a good sign IMO

Once the ammonia is dropping from around 4 ppm back to zero in 12 hours or less you have sufficient bacteria to handle the ammonia your fish load produces. Continue to add ammonia daily as you must feed the bacteria that have formed or they will begin to die off.
