soooo i made a mistake in my 20 gallon tank by not cycling it long enough. I had bought 2 pregnant females and i male and placed them in my tank. At first my male was eating but then over the days he slowly stopped eating. As this occurred i also noticed cloudy like water. Cople days later i stripped the females and placed the fry in a breeding net in my tank. My females seemed stress and my male seemed stress no one was eating. Ph level is fine everything fine until i tested my ammonia which was around 4.0ppm. I did immediate water changes i took my fry out as slowly they were doing i placed them in a little 5 gallon tank using water from my main tank so good bacteria can be in my 5 gallon tank. I know that was a risk but it has been 5 days and my fry are fine, happy and eating in that little tank but my main tank is struggling. Iv done two 40% water changes over 5 days and constantly every night add water conditioner prime. Anyways i have 2 questions:
1. How do i lower my ammonia. Its lowered a bit but still sitting at 2.0ppm i have done a lot.
2. Will my fry be fine considering the tank has good ph, temperature and they are eating?
