Causes:
The beneficial bacteria have not yet established in your new filter.
Your filter is not the correct size for your aquarium set up.

Your filter media may be dirty.
Solutions:

to add a bacteria start treatment to your tank to speed up this process.

of water per 1 inch of fish in your aquarium.
Follow the instructions in the maintenance section above.

water changes in your tank.
