I started cycling 9 days ago with some help from my established tank (2 baskets full of grAvel, some deco rocks) and I thought things were moving along fine but now nothing seems to be happening. Dosed with ammonia on the 29th well kind of over dosed but I did 90% water change and bought it down to 4 and my nitrites showed up right away. Ammonia went down to 1 and so I dosed it to 4 again and now my nitrites are 8 and ammonia still 4. Ammonia has not gone down in the past 2 days but my nitrites have gone up. I don't know what is going on. Is it normal for nitrites to go up and ammonia to stay put? My other 2 tanks did not do this during their cycle:/
