Trouble getting started

[Bix22]

When my tank cycled I never saw nitrites, my test never turned purple since day 1!

I used cycle by nutrafin and mine is showing weird results as well My ammo has dropped very slightly to from 4ppm to 3ppm and I am showing very trace amounts of nitrite and nitrate

The nitrate in the pic turn yellow on me. I was trying to get a better pic with no flash but the color was a pale orange I would say it was probably 2.5ppm?

Your results seem to be more what is expected I think...I wish I had a little bit of purple on mine! Lol

Good to know that it's possible to cycle without seeing the nitrites!

I tried nutrafin cycle it did not work. For me

Day 13 ammonia has dropped to 1ppm and still NO nitrItes!! Nitrates still holding around 10-20 since day 8. I dosed ammo back up to 3-4 ppm this morning. Hope to see nitrites soon!
