I use the hagen mini master test kit which shows 0.6 ammonia, there is a table next to it but along the bottom there is no 0.6 on the scale so does this equal 0,

ph 8
n/rite 0
n/rate 25
Kh 170ppm/ 9.5 deg

tankmaates - endlers, catfish (bronze corys)
anything else wrong with water, tank, please say.

What is the max they will tolerate?
 
I would try to get it lower....Shrimp can be very...very...iffy about NH3 in the water. But it should be good as-is.

Though, once they've been in your tank a while, and they have gotten used to the gradual swings your tank has, then you should be fine. Just try to keep them stressed as little as possible. Do lots of partial water changes the first 2 weeks you have them and they'll be fine :good:
