Hi aimee

You're on the right track BUT . . . If you're using the fish food method, the best way to do so is to get a pop sock and add a handful of flakes to it. Tie it in the water near the outflow of the filter/s and leave it there til ammonia reads 2ppm, then remove, allow ammonia to drop a little, and basically repeat with a fresh ammonia ball.

Alternatively, you could try to get bottled ammonia from the cleaning aisle in the likes of Homebase or Boots (IIRC).

The cycle will take forever if you're just adding a bit of food everyday
