Hey hey!!!
Starting my first freshwater fish less cycle. Slowly adding ammonia and up to about 2ppm. It's a 29g tank and I have read mixed things on aiming for 4ppm or 5ppm. So that was my first questions, does it matter which I shoot for?
I am also wondering where to buy a nitrate and nitrite testing kits? I only stopped by petsmart quick and didn't see any there.
Does anyone have a link to a good step by step fish less cycle? The few things I have read seem that I either just add ammonia each day to make sure it stays at about that 4-5ppm. Another forum I read says that however much ammonia I add today to make it hit that 4-5ppm mark is how much that I should be adding each day until my other levels peak and then fall off. Any thoughts?
Thanks for the help!
