Does This Ammonia Work?

Ok, so I know that when you cycle with ammonia you need pure ammonia. Only place that carries is the dollar store by me and its called "LA's Totally Awesome Pure Ammonia". Its fragrance free and says only to contain water and ammonia. I placed 15ml of it into my tank and it brought my tank up to around 1ppm so I am guessing its really watered down. Other thing I noted was that when shaken bubbles form which from what I hear is bad. It says there are no other additives. Can I trust this? Should I keep adding more and work on cycling still or am I better off not using because I see bubbles? Again it is fragrance free.

The stuff most of us use is in a 9.5% solution

If your bottle doesn`t list any additives an the bubbles disappear in a second or so it should be ok

bubbles take a few min to go away. After googling the ammonia I I could not find anything saying there are additives. Says it is fragrance free and "pure ammonia". Does the bubbling prove otherwise? I will be running to one other place that might carry pure ammonia later today if it turns out I cant use this.

Do they look like 'bubble' bubbles or just...bubbles... lol. As in do they look like the type of bubbles you get from soap?
