Slight high of ammonia

[melvinkuan15]

I have a 2ft fish tank,while i was changing water i test the water parameter i find out my ammonia slight high is abt 0.25ppi. So what the cause of ammonia slight high? And any way to solve it?

Before i hvnt chgn my water. I did shfited some rock n make everthin water messy. So isit that the cause of slight high ammonia

How long have your tank been set up? Could be that by shifting the rocks around. Some of the microfauna died resulting in a spike in ammonia. Another reason could be that your tank not done cycling yet

If ur ammonia is still detectable after a few hours, it means ur tank cannot cope. Something is releasing it slowly. It could be die off from ur rock shift. Maybe restrict ur rock shift to minor moves till ur tank matures like 5-6 mths

how long do you set up the tank? ammonia should not be detectable at a established tank.

with 2 ft tank anything that died will cause ammonia spike. on my 5 ft DT i lost 1 maroon clownfish (got chase till death i only managed to rescued 1) , 2 turbo and didnt show any spike on my ammonia.

If it still persists, as a temporary measure, perform more frequent water change to take out the ammonia.

Another option is to use Prodibio Ammonia Stop (another temporary measure)
