@DeadStang Yeah, stopping treatment is looking like is going to be the best option. I was skeptical about the method and I guess I've learned my lesson. Did your cycle & fish recover?

@mynameisnobody The tank was previously cycled, and there was no meaningful break between removing the school that was in it beforehand & adding the plecos, there was plenty of bacteria and it has been dosed with prime pretty regularly, so I'm fairly certain it was the medications. Yes, I have larger aquariums, this is just a quarantine tank - I'm very aware of their space requirements. They are juveniles (~1.5 in each).

I hate that my first post here is this one, but I could use some guidance with this situation. I recently discovered Aquarium Co-Op and have quarantined my newest additions according to the FAQ on using the quarantine medication trio. The fish: 2 juvenile snow white bristlenose plecos, plus a small mystery snail that escaped the evacuation. The tank: 10g with a couple of plants, a sponge filter, and a HOB. Fully cycled and previously occupied by a group of neon tetras and mystery snails. I got the fish in yesterday, and this evening the tank is testing with ~0.25 ammonia and nitrites on an API master test, so my assumption is that the meds crashed the cycle (as the bottles warned is possible). I dosed some StressGuard and Prime, but I'm not sure what to do. Per the quarantine instructions I'm not due for a water change for another six days, and I've got AmGuard on the way but it'll be Wednesday (five days) until it arrives, so I'll have to water change before then, I'm assuming. Any advice appreciated.
