    Need help with ammonia

    They are not just big Eaters but big waste producers too You've not got enough bacteria yet to convert the new larger bioload added to the tank Keep up the water changes Your bacteria will eventually catch up if you have enough surface area for it to grow Meanwhile use Seachem prime Daily...
