Hi all I had started to cycle my new 125 moving up from a 55 for the tangs health and my addiction lol. Oh well I had amonia then the nitrites rose and then nitrates as well but I lost the nitrates and still have nitrites I am now dosing pure amonia is there anything else I can do or am I doing something wrong I'm still green here please help thanks..
 
If you have no fish you can dose the ammo again then test tomorrow. If it chews up all the ammo and trites in a day it's cycled. That's the sure way to tell
 
Ok will do I will check again tomorrow its only been going two weeks now here's hoping its going forwards still
 
Also keep an eye on your ph. If you notice a big drop over a day do a small water change . On my recent cycle I was stuck on trites. One day my ph dropped so I did a Pwc. It gave things a little kick start.
