Cycling my upgrade tank, used a bottle of biospira and dosing household ammonia.

1- I have an ammonia badge, but it doesn't seem to work. It's brand new. If i put the badge near some ammonia it will shoot up in color but in the water it stays a constant yellow.

2- Because of me relying on this and not using normal tests, I dosed WAY too much ammonia lol...i did a water test and it was well past 8ppm. yikes! will this have any affects on the BB? planning on doing a 15% ish WC soon.
 
alright uh just did another test: ammonia 0, nitrites 0, nitrates 10ppm...last night nitrites were around .5ppm and ammonia 8ppm. i don't think this is correct lol
 
Its probably reading a different form of ammonia
