As the title says, I have ammonia in my source water. It is city water and I have contacted them to let them know what my tests show and they replied with 'its within acceptable range.'
Problem is, I can't do any kind of water changes or water top offs in my smaller tanks without dramatically spiking the ammonia and risking or actually killing all my fish.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do? I work at a petstore down the street and because we are on the same city water, they also have ammonia in their treated water (its DI water, not RO). So, just buying water isn't really an option.
Should I try ammonia reducing chips/filter pads? I know ammolock and such like doesn't work well long term. I've never had this happen before either!
