Yeah, we add water whenever it gets to about an inch below full. But we just use tap water with a squirt of prime. Ammonia level being something you "control" is a foreign concept to us, really.
When we
originally set up the tank, about 4 years ago, we took in water samples to the fish store until they said it was right. But since then we have never tested it in any way.
We've even moved twice with this tank--both times we hired this guy who does nothing but move fishtanks. He bags all the fish in your own tankwater, and saves all the rest in these huge barrels installed in his truck, and then just puts it all back in the new location. That water is downright
aged.
