    Having an ammonia spike. I have water filtering now for a change tomorrow, but I am about to go buy a bottle of Prime or AmGuard to patch the situation until I can do a major water change. Are these products reef safe? What should I expect? Thanks

    I have used prime in an emergency before, works well. It is a band aid fix though, still need to figure why you had the spike in the first place.
