Hey everyone. This is my first post here. So I have my new aquarium all set up and I bought Dr Timm's ammonia drops to add to my 20 gallon aquarium. It says to add 4 drops per gallon (so 80) to get 2ppm. I'm afraid that it didn't quite work out that way and my tests are registering 4ppm instead. On other forums people have said that it should be fine and the bacteria should be able to start the cycle no problem. I'm also using jumpstart beneficial bacteria. I'm currently on day 5 or 6 of the cycle but my ammonia levels haven't changed. Should I keep waiting or do a water change? Is it too early to tell if I messed up?
