Need Help with Ammonia!!!!

[Shnookina]

I need to get some ammonia to start off the cycle in my fish tank, trouble is i don't drive so have to rely on my dad to take me somewhere My dad is determind i don't need it but i don't want to cycle with fish so now i can't get it. Is there anyone that lives in the UK willing to set up some ammonia for me on ebay? I'd be ever so gratefull

You can get ammonia from common shops like Boots, surely you're dad will take you somewhere like that, you must have a Boots locally!

If not, I have seen ammonia products for sale on some Aquarium websites. Can't remember which ones at the mo but I'll have a look and get back to you.

BOOTS IS YOUR BEST BET MATE!

HOW BIG IS YOUR TANK ANYWAY? I DID A FISHLESS CYCLE ONLY TO FIND THAT THE FISH I WANT TO ADD TO MY TANK (15G HEX) PREFER A WELL MATURED TANK. AS I CAN ONLY HAVE A SMALL COMMUNITY IM A BIT ANNOYED

ALTHOUGH FISHLESS CYCLING DOESN'T HURT THE FISH IN ANYWAY, IT IS BEST USED IF YOU ARE INTENDING TO KEEP FISH THAT ARE VERY TERRITORIAL, THIS WAY YOU CAN ADD ALL YOUR FISH AT ONE TIME.

OTHERWISE I WOULD CYCLE WITH FISH NEXT TIME (NOT A POPULAR COMMENT I BET)

I WILL SAY THOUGH, I HAVE ADDED SOME NEONS TO MY TANK, THEY ARE MEANT TO BE INTRODUCED TO WELL ESTABLISHED TANKS, AND THEY ARE DOING PERFECTLY FINE, REALLY HEALTHY ACTUALLY! WITHOUT FISHLESS CYCLING THIS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE CASE!

Actually, fish that are used for fishless cycling are affected by the high ammonia and nitrite levels. When the nitrite spikes, its not going to do the fish any good, is it?

Hi again

See this link for info on a product called Jeyes Kleen off

Ammonia

This is sold pretty widely in the UK and seems to be the best stuff for fishless cycling as it is pure ammonia without additives.

Also if you search the net for this product, you should find somewhere that sells it online, it only seems to cost a couple of quid.

Good luck
