I'm currently fishless cycling a 60 gallon tank with sand substrate and about 30% live plants.heat is at 80 degrees with filter running 24hours. I'm using fish flakes for ammonia ( no stores sells pure ammonia around me), and was wondering if I can speed it up by using python bio support which is a bacteria in a bottle. I don't now anyone that can seed my tank. I've gotten up to 3ppm for ammonia and its been a week. The tank looks yellow with all the bacteria blooming so it's working so far...

Angels Plus sells seeded sponge media. It can be cut to fit into your filter.
You will get mixed opinions about bacteria-in-a-bottle products. I have heard positive reviews about Dr. Tim’s One and Only
