cant keep ammonia down. 3 days ago did 75% water change and added 32 more gallons to the system. tested water today its around 2ppm. will seachem prime help keeping ammonia under control?

Do you have any sponge filters running?

I used boispira. you might try starting a new thread asking opinions on the best way.

So my 72 day waiting time finally up. but im scared to release my fish into display tank. After seing some spots on them that look possible like ich. here is what happened 3 week ago i got 75 gallon tank due to the 50 gallon bin i had the fish in started to leak. so i transferred all my fish to it. After transferred all my fish i was able to observe them better. just to find some brown/yellow spots on them, and blonde naso tang had a brown patch by his gill, Purple tang was stressed out, and powder blue tang had yellow spots on fins.
During this whole time i had constant battle with high ammonia then high nitrites. Until 2 weeks ago i did 75% water change and i used water from my main tank this time. (fallow period was up already) So ever since that time about 4 day later all fish looked good. brown spots were gone.
So I think almost 10 days have passed now and my fish look good so far. but still im scared to know if i still got ich on them.
I was pretty confident I did my ttm properly

That's what I used to cure my rock. Would work great in this situating for homing the fish.
