Hello everyone,
I am having issues with my ammonia. My ammonia has been spiked for about two weeks now and I can’t figure out why. I have done 10% water changes, 25% water changes and 50% water changes. I have also gone a couple of days without feeding. I’ve been using prime, stress coat and fritzzyme 7. Nothing seems to be breaking it down. My 29 gallon tank is stocked with A hillstream loach, upside down catfish, 6 checkered board barbs, and 5 zebra danios. I have a HOB filter and a sponge filter. I also have 7 live plants. My tank has been established since 8/26/2020. My water levels are:
ph 6.8
ammonia is between 4.0 ppm-8.0 ppm
nitrite 0
nitrate 20
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Sincerely,
Adam
