What levels should your pH, ammonia, nitrate and nitrite be at when cycling is completed and the tank is ready for fish? I still have to get ammonia and nitrate and nitrite testing kits, I already have the pH testing kit. And also if someone can explain, or if linking an article is easier that's awesome too, why these levels need to be where they do... That would be awesome! I've done some pH tests already and both have been at 7.6.. One test was done around 8 this morning and the other was done around 8 tonight if that makes a difference. The filter I was given doesn't work and even after trying advice from some members here still isn't working, I won't be able to get a filter until tomorrow, Sunday at the latest. A member told me to
keep the old carbon cartridge and the floss in the aquarium until I get a new filter and use those instead of the new ones when I get a new filter, which I'm doing and will do. Thanks!
