I'm doing a fishless cycle on our new 55 gallon tank with new Cascade filter, heater, power pump and gravel. It's going now 2 months. We have it upstairs in our bed room by our window. It took too long to get the ammonia levels to rise at first. We used the ammonia from ACE hardware. Then 3 weeks later we finally saw the nitrates rise, the problem now the Nitrates & nitrites are are not dropping. A year ago we cycled our first 55 gallon tank within 6 weeks and with same exact filter and was easy to do, I don't know what's going on with this 55 gallon tank we purchased the same stuff and was suppose to be a no brainer...any advise???
