Why Test for Ammonia level in your water ?

Ammonia is an important level that should be tested regularly to test the effectiveness of your aquarium biological filter . It is even important during the initial tank setup and cycling of the tank to check if the cycling process has been completed. A high ammonia level is usually the first cause of fish dieing in an aquarium tank, thus it is important to always keep the level in check.
