Prime and ammonia
I'm using prime as my water conditioner while my filter adapts to a few more fish.
I'm getting very small ammonia readings (less than .25ppm) Am I safe to assume this will be mainly the 'safe' NH4? Thanks for any advice :)

Re: Prime and ammonia
Thanks for the post. I can assure you that if you are using Prime, then any toxic free ammonia that is present is being detoxified and your fish are safe. Your test kit is most likely measuring total ammonia and the ammonia reading that you are getting is the non-toxic ammonium NH4. Our MultiTest: ammonia test kit measures both free (NH3) and total ammonia (NH3 and NH4). You may also want to consider getting our Ammonia Alert which is a very simple badge that you hang inside your aquarium and it will continuously monitor toxic free ammonia through a gas exchange membrane.
