Starting Fishless Cycle, How Much Ammonia?

[kazc31]

So basically I'm soon to start cycling my tank! At last have found ammonia in a local store! So am being a little lazy, rather than confusing my self trying to find out exactly how much ammonia to add to a 25 litre tank im asking for some help that would be much appreciated!

we cant say, this set amount because each ammonia product has different conc's. the best way it to get a 10L bucket and add a drop test, then repeat until you get 5ppm on the test, just remember to count the drop's. then you know lets say 5 drops in 10L makes 5ppm, then you can scale it up

I wouldnt build up to 5ppm ammonia, 1-3 is fine for cycling a tank, but as Mike says, add 1 drop at a time to a given amount of water and then test until you hit the desired amount.
