Fishless Cycling

Steven and I stopped at Wal-Mart on the way home from dinner at The 59 Diner and bought some ammonia (and I got some roses. Yeah!) so we can try and do a fishless cycle on our main tank. Steven spent hours today bleaching the gravel, the plants, and the decorations. It's a fifty-five gallon tank, so it was a big project. We've started referring to the tank as "the death tank" since every fish in it seems to get a bacterial infection. I've been convinced for months that there's bacteria in the gravel, so maybe this will solve the problem. Anyone ever tried a fishless cycling process before? Had any luck with it?

I brim with envy. 59 Diner is on my go-go list because there is NOTHING healthy there and I won't go to non-healthy places until I hit 175.

Stuck at 188.
