Cycled tank

Will three zebra danios keep a 55 gallon tank cycled

The tank will only stay cycled to the bioload of those 3 zebras. It will keep enough beneficial bacteria alive to have a good starting point for when you wish to add other fish, but I would do so gradually and continue testing after doing so.

Ok thank you. Do you think it would be better to keep dosing ammonia then and if so what should I dose to I plan on getting African cichlids.
