$N H_{3}$ $NH_3$

Explanation:

$N H_{4}^{+} + H_{2} O \to N H_{3} + H_{3} O^{+}$ $NH_4^+ + H_2O -> NH_3 + H_3O^+$

$N H_{4}^{+}$ $NH_4^+$ is the acid because it donates an $H^{+}$ $H^+$ ion to the water. It then becomes ammonia ( $N H_{3}$ $NH_3$ ), which would be the conjugate base of $N H_{4}^{+}$ $NH_4^+$ .
