Tank 4: Total ammonia (TAN) high (0.6 mg/L)
Action neededNow: 0.6 mg/L · target ≤ 0.5 mg/L
Compared with a generic starting range for warm-water fish — not a universal rule. Set your own targets in Aquaculture.
Why it matters
Ammonia is toxic to fish, and more so at higher pH and temperature (current pH 8.9). It usually builds up from overfeeding, too many fish, or a struggling biofilter.
What to check next
- Re-test to confirm.
- Note pH (8.9) and temperature (80.1°F) — both make ammonia more toxic.
- Check the biofilter/flow and for dead fish or uneaten feed.
Do now
- Reduce or hold feeding.
- Increase aeration.
- Remove dead fish and uneaten feed.
- Consider a partial exchange only with source water known to be suitable.
- Do not add treatments or chemicals without the label and your system volume.
Follow up: Recheck ammonia and pH in 6–12 hours.
Get expert help: If ammonia keeps rising or fish show stress, contact your state aquaculture extension specialist or an aquatic veterinarian.
