Hi, I'm probably going to be on here annoyingly asking a lot of questions about cycling before it's over with. Lol. I am trying to do a fishless cycle in a 20 gallon with pure ammonia and testing with the API freshwater kit. The process is kind of confusing, so I am just going to give as much info as possible and see what kind of suggestions you all can give. Thanks.
I started on 1/21
Nitrite didn't show until 2/9 at 5.0 then lowered.
Nitrate showed on 2/12 at 5.0 so today the 14th it reads:
Ammonia: 4.0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 5.0
and it seems not to be moving.
I am trying to figure out where I am in the cycle and what to do next.
