Aquarium Advice FINatic
About two and a half weeks ago started a fishless cycle on a 20 long. didn't get to excited about testing every day, done this before so I know the time frame varies. Sunday my readings were; amm 2, dosed amm back up to 4, nitrites were 5+ and nitrates were 80. Didn't test again untill tonight, readings, amm o, nitrites 1 and nirates o. Redid the nitrates test thinking I made a mistake, results were the same o. I have done fishless cycles before and never once had o for nitrates. I just dosed the amm again, will check in an hour or so to see what the amm reads. Seems weird I have no nirates. Quess I should have tested more often but ya can't hurry up a fishless cycle and I'm not in a hurry.
