Water Issues

OK I've always been having problems with Ammonia etc and now I've just found a new one....

My 2 ft spawning tank had a reading of ZERO ammonia.... I just now added some well aged water (it's been sitting for over a week) to it because it was evaporating a bit and I'm trying to spawn... now I have an ammonia reading.

All that was in the water to start was Prime, a little liquid vitamin and a little plant food (non phosphorus) and some Aqua Septic (stuff to reduce harmful stuffs)

I've added this same water to my fry tank with no problem or reading change.... could this be due to the fact my fry tank is filtered and the 2 ft is not?

but where is the ammonia coming from in the 1st place? it's bottled water so no chlorine?

Test the water before you add the prime....

I've seen posts claiming Prime gives a false ammonia reading
