Not sure if you have Boots in NI, but they stock it over here. You may have to persevere with the staff as they on't seem to know they stock it It's with laundry/cleaning stuff.

Yeah we have boots over here, will pop in tomorrow. Is it simply called ammonia, or will it be a cleaning product (named something else). Sorry for asking stupid questions. Been out 3 times today for fishtank related excursions!! Just wanna get all the stuff and get the cycling underway now. I have whacked 2 fish flakes in there anyway to hopefully get it started before i can get hold of the good stuff!!!!

Many Thanks. Been looking at the cycling page, and it shows a load of places to get it. Will try Boots tomorrow, if not ive got a homebase near me as well so will go there. Drat bank holidays and their early closing!!!

Thanks for all the help, gonna add the ammonia tomorrow night and see how we go.
