The ammonia level has dropped to just about zero today. The API ammonia test is not quite solid yellow, but it is better than yesterday, and closer to 0 than .25. The fish still spend a lot of time near the surface, but that may be because I haven’t fed them in two days. They do swim deeper when I walk away. Hungry, hungry fishies.
Fortunately, I can leave the ammonia bonder in the cabinet for now. Less is more.
