qt help

I currently have a 10g hospital tank that has been under hypo for a month today. In it, I have 2 fairy wrasses that had ich(but no more of course). Ive started raising the salinity today. i did a 100% water change and is at 1.011.

 

Ive been having trouble keeping the ammonia down. The fish were acting weird, i think the ammonia is burning their gills. i noticed there behavior last thursday night(i can post vids if you want). I have done 2 50% water changes between then and now and just did a 100%(as noted above^) I also put in "Prime". ammonia is still at .25.

 

any help? can the fish recover from this?

 

thanx

It's strange that you get .25 after a 100% water change, maybe your test kit?

I would never advise a 100% wc as the difference in the water can cause seriuos stress, but I'm not clued up completly on qt tanks so maybe someone else?
