I cant take it, These Parameters are INSANE

keep doing water changes eevry three hours at 50% per change till amonia is under .25ppm.
 
i added ammo lock 3 days ago and just yesterday i began to add prime, could i still be getting false readings even though i used it the other day, i did 50 percent water change i waited 20 min, tested the water and it was the same ammonia = 8.0, so i dont know,
 
8.0 ammonia would kill any fish in the tank in a matter of minutes. I expect he means .8, which is still bad, but fish can survive it.

not true. Im suffering a similar situation....I just checked...it is 8.0. It has been this high for wayy too long. Maybe something is giving it a flase reading. Its an API Master Test Kit.
 
its just odd, bc at 8.0 i would have thought the fish would be dead, but they seem to be doing just fine, no erradic movement, breathing appears normal, and they seem just happy to me, so im thinking it might be false readings
