Look It Up
Ok, this is weird! I never did the next giant water change, just kept dosing the ammonia. Checked params last night. Still had at least 2ppm nitrites, and 0 ammonia. Dosed it again last night. Tonight I got: 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites (yay!), lots of nitrates. So am I a water change away from getting my fish???
It's quite possible. Just to be sure I'd dose ammonia for another couple of days. If ammonia and nitrites stay at 0 then go get fish! Don't forget to do a 100% water change the day before (make sure nitrates are as low as you can get them even if you have to do more than one pwc) and turn your heater down to normal temp if you have it increased for the cycle. Do a YouTube search for "drip acclimation" as it's the best way to acclimate fish to a new tank. Pics of your fish when you get them! Good luck.
