![]() Do water changes with RO or RODI water, you are definately getting die off from the new rock, you should always cure rock before adding to an existing system, or add dry rock that won't spike your tank.
If anyone can hold your livestock for you, (ask here, and your LFS) that would be a good idea, because ammonia and nitrates that high are going to kill your stuff off. |

![]() Water changes are best, but if you are really worried there are amonia sponges you can get that will absorb some of it.
