i just did a test of my water and there is a ammonia jump.

nitrate 10 ppm
nitrite 0 ppm
alk 1.7-2.8
ph 8.2
amm .5 was .25
salinity 1.027
calcium 500 ppm

i know the salinty is a little high i am dripping fresh water into the sump and going to retest...

i jsut did a 5 gal water change 2 nights ago...should i do another one now or should i wait?

What animals are in the tank?

The salinity is fine, IMO. I target 1.026-1.027 in any case. The calcium is a bit high, but the rest looks reasonable, assuming alkalinity is now 2.8 meq/L.
