Thus far I have been assuming that if I don't change the water each day it will go above .5 by the next day. But this may not be the case. I didn't change it last night even though it said .5 so it will be interesting to see if it stays at .5 or if it shows even higher when I check it later today. I think the bottom line is that I don't want the ammonia levels to go much above .5 Hopefully I can pull off doing water changes just every other day for a little while.
