Ok so I added some prime first thing this morning. I'll do a water change tonight and turn on the carbon reactor too. My ammonia test kit seems to be missing so I'll have to pickup a new one today. Is this something the fish can recover from or is it bad news once they've been exposed?

yes they can if the damage isn't to bad

is it possible during the treatment process they were exposed to amonia?

None that I can think of. Even if that rock was dead or dry, 30 pounds of dead or dry rock shouldn't effect 300G of cycled water should it?

Are you just using 30 pounds to filter 300g of water?
