This morning I decided to end my fishless cycle. Before huge wc, I did a test
Ammonia 0
Nitrites 4
Nitrates were at 70
Since nitrites have been hanging in range 3-5 ppm, I decided to end the cycle.
Did 90% wc then did another test
Nitrites 1 ppm
Nitrates less than 10
Since nitrites were at 1ppm, again took my bucket out and did 70% wc. Will wait and check if nitrites dropped to 0.
Assuming nitrites went down to 0,
Planning to add 6-7 total fish of small size between 1 inch to 2 inch in size.
I have to visit lfs to pick my stock.
Can I now add the fish stock ?
