It has been about 6 weeks since my 3Gal Picotope tank has cycled.
I used live rock and live sand with Tropic Marin to obtain a 1.025 saline concentration. Small HOB filter that came with the tank is running nicely. The tank cycled w/o any livestock in a few weeks but now it has been 6 weeks since the cycle still w/o any livestock and I am wondering if I can introduce one small goby or blemy at this point OR should I try a few drops of pure ace hardware ammonia to start the cycle again and when it completes intro the fish?
Current readings today 11/11/11 before changing anything are:
NO3 10
NO2 0
pH 8.5
ALK 240
