NH+4+H2ONH3+H3O+
Acid+BaseConjB+ConjA

On the reactant side of the equation the Ammonium (NH+4) is the Acid as it is the hydrogen ion donor to the Water (H2O) which is the Base as it receives the hydrogen ion.

On the product side the Hydronium (H3O+) is the Conjugate Acid as it is the hydrogen donor to the Conjugate Base Ammonia (NH3) as it receives the hydrogen ion.

NH+4NH3
AcidConjB
The Ammonia (NH3) is the Conjugate Base pair to the Acid Ammonium (NH+4) .

H2OH3O+
BaseConjA

The Hydromium (H3O+) is the Conjugate Acid pair to the Base Water (H2O).

I hope this was helpful.
