Hello,
I just started a 20 gal tank.
Added dry rock and I am cycling using pure ammonia..
When I test my salt water for ammonia it turns blue.. I added too much ammonia the first day , and did a WC of 40% twice. I just tested again today and it still turns blue. I took another vial, took 75% salt water and added 25% tap water and it turned a perfect green? What should I do? I'm thinking about draining all the water and getting live rock from my LFS..
1st pic is after 2 minutes
