New Ammonia Source?

[Ltygress]

When I went to set up my 100-gallon I read several sources that said I should AVOID ammonia with surfactants. The problem is, almost every ammonia out there on the market has it now. Even the "store brand" bottle of plain Ammonia in Walmart has it.

I know the key is to shake the bottle and if it foams at the top, avoid it. But they all do.

So where is everyone getting ammonia from these days that does NOT have surfactants?

I have seen in some of the forums here that this one works really well. Dr Tims has some nitrafying bacteria to cycle the tank.

Ebay also sells 35% strength ammonia purely for fishless cycling, I have used this to cycle more than half a dozen tanks without any problems using the fishless cycing article from this forum.

Is that available in the US?

Not sure tbh, but i do not see why not provided shipping is paid for.

It looks like Drs Foster and Smith has some ammonia for the use of cycling, too. So I'm probably going to order some from there, since I'm about to order tank stands at the same time.
