Hello All,
I'm in the 4th week of fishless cycling with clear ammonia. I started noticing nitrite .25 ppm for about 2 days now. I've couple of questions at this point.
1. When should I add back ammonia?
a) Should I wait until ammonia goes down to Zero ppm?
b) Or add once ammonia goes down to 1 ppm?
2. I'm planning to have 2 Orandas to begin with or may be that's all I'll have with my current setup (29 + 20 connected thru aquarium bridge). What is the QT procedure? I read that using aquarium salt and Parzipro for couple of weeks.
Please comment. I don't want to learn it hard-way :), rather leverage the experts opinion here :thanks:
