Newbie in need of help! New tank, need advice

[Bcusick]

I live near Manchester so it cost me £20 return on the megabus

Megabus? The ones with seats on the roof?

Hey guys

The tank is doing really well now as far as I can tell. I've been doing water changes about once every week. The fish seem really happy. As far as I can tell all is well. I never did see any nitrates. I saw nitrites but only low amounts and just for one day.
Ammonia is at 0.2
Nitrites are at 0
And nitrates are at 0

Does this mean that my tank has finally cycled??

I'll be soooo happy if it has.

Sorry I've not been on here for a while. Been busy setting up my own business. Really hectic

Hey B! Good to hear all is well in the aquatics! A truly cycled tank will have no amm and some nitrates, the test nitrate itself can be a bit if a task, the directions must be followed to the t. if not done correctly it will often yield a negative result! Congrats on the start-up, I went solo for a year and it was a ride
