ok jus to update anyone thats interested about 3 days ago I added a few pieces of krill to jumpstart the ammonia well I took them out last night and tested today and got a reading of 0 when I checked last night right after removing the krill it was .50
so with the advice and help of reefkeeperz we took my damsel out of my 12g and put him in the 40g which will also help with the cycle of the tank
