I have a 44 gallon tank with only a pair of guppies and 4 neon tetras in it. I have an Emperor filter with bio-wheel as well as a sponge filter in the tank. The tank has been set up for over a month and a half now. However, I have had high ammonia levels for weeks. Each weekend I do a quarter to half water change using combination of bottled water and tap water. I have used AmmoLok to get rid of the ammonia. However, with testing using both strips and liquid drops, the ammonia levels are at the highest end. I have also had cloudiness issues.
The only other possible variable I can think of is I have a piece of drift wood I purchased at the aquarium store.
Any suggestions about how to get the ammonia level down to safe reading would be most appreciated.
