| I've been doing water changes with the distilled water. Yesterday I did about a 25% water change with the distilled water. After that I tested the water and the ammonia level was still 2 ppm. Before the water change the PJ cardinalfish died the same way the others did. I am worried about my corals. I can't seem to get the ammonia level lowered before they die too.

How often have you been doing the water changes, and are they all about 25%? What are all your readings (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH, salinity) now?

| I have been doing 2 liter water changes twice a week. I did the 25% water change only once. All of the test readings are the same accept for the salinity which is 1.025.

The readings should be changing. Are you sure your test kits are right? I'd have the readings verified by your lfs. And I'd start doing 25% water changes each time...the other ones are too small to make enough of a difference.

| I'll try to get the test kits verified. They should be okay because there from a good brand. I'll start doing 25% water changes. Thanks again for the help.
