Tell us the size of your tank and the concentration of ammonia in your solution, and we can work it out for you.

Also, read the fishless cycling thread. Theres a link in my signature.

20uk Gallon and Ammonia 9.5%

 

[backtotropical]

Ok. 20 UK gals = 90 litres = 90,000ml

You want ammonia to be arised to about 5ppm (parts per million), so

90,000ml / 1,000,000 x 5 = 0.45ml (desired ammonia level in tank)

Your solution is 9.5% ammonia so

0.45ml / 9.5 x 100 = 4.7ml (amount of solution to be added to tank to raise to 5ppm)

Hope this helps.
