If nitrites are high, do a 50% waterchange. make sure the new water is same temperature of the tank water (you can mix hot and cold water from the tap as I do).
Fish-in cycle require testing for ammonia and nitrites each 2 days I would say... This process can take 2-3 weeks. If you didn't saw ammonia spike, but a nitrite spike, it means the bad from ammonia is already done. If you didn't lost fish during this process, that's a good thing. Some fishs are more tolerant to ammonia and nitrites than others sensitives fishs...
If you see nitrites and no ammonia, it means ammonia bacterias are present and working. You must wait for the nitrites bacterias set to develop, but keep doing water changes to prevent a too big nitrite spike.
THe enchancer won't do a great difference, most of the time, the bacterias in the bottle are dead... They need ammonia/nitrite source to survive.
Do water change if you see too much nitrites ( let's say near >2ppm)
or if fishs seems to be gasping for air at the surface of the water.
