Aquarium Advice Regular
I was able to finally find a home for my fish! Yay!
I started a Fish In cycle a week ago Saturday and starting this past Saturday my Ammonia started to go up...so the cycling process has been a week so far...
So now that my tank is empty my levels are:
Ammonia - .25-.5
Nitrites - 0
Nitrates - 0
So...where do I go from here?
Where am I at in the cycling process (I know the begining, but Idk how long it takes for the Nitrites to show up)
I've read the links people have posted about cycling, however I'd like to get the advise from people on here, since it seems most of you know what you are talking about and can hopefully walk me through this
I have a 26g tall bow front tank.
Filter on, bubbler on, Temp set at 80, light off, water conditioned...fully decored as you can see!
I am not able to get any seeding from a cycled tank so I'm doing this from scratch.
I was told from a pet store associate to use Bio-Boost with my cycling, but wanted to know what people had to say about that...
Also, I have a few left over food particles in the gravel, should I vacuum that out or leave it for ammonia?
Thank you for the advice!
