I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the usual ammonia level is for a cycling tank within the first week of cycling?
 
well i let him look at the catfish selection and hes got his heart set on a pictus catfish and a pangnesious catfish so i dont know yet lol.

Please research any species you're interested in PRIOR to purchasing the fish. Pictus need a group and require a larger tank because of their energy level.

Re your question above, no two cycles are the same. There's no one answer to your question. With fish in, you cannot let the ammonia level be above .25 without doing a water change.
