U don't need ammonia remover, just do a wc that's the real way to rid ammonia.

Secondally carbon is useless for you.

Just buy a couple boxes of bio max, a heater and Seachem prime!

I completely agree. I'd get a couple packs of scrubbies. Great bio media for cheap. Just pack as much bio media in that as you can.
 
I got 3 big boxes of biomax and another aqueon pro 200 watt heater. I filled up the bucket with 4x ac 110 activated carbon at the bottom and filled it with 3 gallons of biomax. I also had to find a way to support the weight of the bucket cause it started to crack.

i woulda drilled in holes instead of that one big hole so the water can come out with a bit of pressure.

I put it like that cause once I run plumbing and build a stand for it the bucket is going outside. It has pressure if I take out the supports it tips the bucket over
