Wow..I just wanted everyone to be happy for me.

I have been using the API test kit, and dosing ammonia to 3ppm which have been going down within about 8-10 hours. The ammonia and nitrites have been at 0 in the morning three days in a row and yesterday I did a 60% water change and since the ammonia and nitrites were 0 again this morning and Nitrates very very high I can do a 90% water change and add fish.

The water quality was dosed with seachem after every water change.

I will be adding some guppies and platies tomorrow (about 10 e/a).

Thanks for the help and support.

That all sounds really good ! I am happy for you fer shure. Enjoy your new fish, I really like my Platys.
