how did you go about bringing the tank to your house??
ive moved alot of tanks to alot of houses any amonia i see is usually right away within days if there is any at all, with a tank that is five years old(if thats the case) it should be able to convert amonia pretty quick and at 2ppm( extremely high) your fish would have a hard time surving and corals would melt within days, but the amonia should decrease after a little spike not increase off the chart ,since the only die off would be what was released or very fragile(if transported right)
what kind of corals do you have??
are your fish ok??
lights and temp??
your parameters are out of whack besides what you added for ph what else have you added ???
