Glad also to hear it worked out. Hope others that read this as a reference that test strips are basically useless. One thing to note, we really are stuck with whatever pH our source water is. Higher pH makes ammonia more toxic and lower pH can mean there isn’t enough buffer in the system. Monitor the pH for whatever is “normal” and add buffer baking soda or oyster shells (chicken scratch) can be put in bags or “socks”.
