the guppies loved that, they seemed to swim into it as i was pouring it. just tested my tap water and it looks like i have 0.25ppm of ammonia in there. does ammonia change in your tap water from time to time?
is nutrafin aqua plus ok to use as a water conditioner?
what do i need to get now to get ammonia out of my tap water?
nutrafin aqua plus is ok as a water conditioner, but I remember reading that it can actually give off ammonia after it is initially added. Something about the way it breaks down. That info was posted here some time ago. Generally Seachem Prime is seen as one of the best and because it is so concentrated it's also quite cheap (treats 10L with just 0.6ml).
For tap water ammonia, although it's not common some people do 'suffer' from it. Try calling your water provider and ask them for the water readings and if they know ammonia is present in the supply. It may be a temporaty issue or it could be a long-standing one.
ok thanks so i cant actually get anything for ammonia? tbh this has only started happening since i was using the water conditioner, i never used to bother using it but since i did ive lost fish!!!! can i get Seachem Prime in the UK?
my guppy is now swimming at the top trying to get air, is there anything i can do? ive tried bouncing the water a little so he can get an air gap but he just swam down then came back up when i stopped!
it says API AMMO LOCK converts it so is that worth a try? also i could use that as a conditioner?
Thanks
