I have an 86g tank that I have been tryin to do a fishless cycle on.
When I started I dosed the ammonia everyday and my nitrites came up to 1.6-2.0.
After about 5-6 more days the nitrites did not budge then all of a sudden they dropped to 0 and my ammonia went up a bit to around 3-3.5.
Is this normal? Keep in mind my tank is seeded with 2 mature filters and some gravel plus 5 plants.
