I don't get why it got that high after I used a filter sponge seeded in my dt for 3 wks

They need several changes as mcgyvr said - ammonia distress does lasting damage to their respiratory system.

Do you have a badge on the display tank, and if so what does it read? Test the DT and QT again and compare.

Good luck!

At 2ppm a 50% change will put you at 1 (still a problem)...another 50% change will put you at .5ppm....(right at the trigger level).. Another 50% to .25ppm...
Get to work ;p

I did all this it helped.. wonder how long typically it would take for 2 anthias in a 20 gal to cause another ammonia issue? 1 wk? i don't mind doing 10 gal weekly changes going forward but I aint doin em every other day...

im cycling this tank after these fish are out

I have never cycled a qt but I do 25-30% water changes every other day when I have one set up. I also use Prime but would not rely solely on that.
It's definitely a PITA but it gives me a little piece of mind before adding to my DT.
