Azedenkae, dosing pure ammonia, fritz fish fuel. No algae present, no live plants. Tank has had 2 "cloudy" appearances since startup which im taking as a bacteriological bloom.
Yes, very much likely bacterial blooms, and likely the reason why you see no nitrite or nitrate.
Ammonia can be consumed via multiple methods, one of them being as a nitrogen source for growth by microorganisms. In the presence of organic compounds, heterotrophic microorganisms can rapidly multiply, depleting ammonia along the way. It is not too important what any of these specific terminologies mean if they are not familiar to you, because long story short bacterial blooms can consume ammonia.
However, this is not nitrification, the process we try to establish via the cycle. That's why bacterial blooms are not really good or bad per se, just... different.
There are two options going on from here, depending on how you define cycling.
The broader definition just requires ammonia to somehow be processed, whether by nitrification or otherwise. This is not the preferred definition, as it can result in constant bacterial blooms in the future. And also can be pretty slow, being dependent on organic sources being present. Which is what you are probably seeing now.
The preferred definition requires that ammonia must be consumed via nitrification. This is preferred as well, nitrification is a never-ending process. Once a robust colony of nitrifiers (the 'beneficial bacteria') are established, they will continuously consume ammonia, and does not result in bacterial blooms.
Likely right now your tank does not have many nitrifiers, hence why it is rather slow. No worries, all you need to do is keep on waiting, re-dosing ammonia when both ammonia and nitrite reads zero. Of course this takes a very long time, as your nitrifiers need to take time to establish naturally.
You can of course try bottled bac products to speed up the process, but you already tried TSS, so hmmm.
What's the pH?
