Is it necessary to let the tap water sit in the bucket for a certain length of time before I transfer it to the tank?
I use a digital thermometer to get the temp from the faucet within a degree of the tank, fill up the bucket, add Seachem Prime, then 2 minutes later pour into tank.
Also, it has been one month since I started my fish in cycle. I never go more than 2 days without AT LEAST a 25% pwc. Still getting readings around .25 ammonia. Is this normal? I have yet to see any Nitrite. Does this mean I am still a month away from cycle completion? Will I definitely see nitrite before this is over?
Thank you!
