Update: so on Aug 31st I added 4ppm of ammonia to start the cycle last weekend I dropped in some cycled media I had I tested for the first time tonight
Ph6.8 I'm getting more crushed coral to add to the filters soon
Ammonia 0ppm
Nitrite 0ppm
Nitrate 20ppm
Is it possible I cycled in just 2 weeks so I dosed ammonia back up to 4ppm I will test at the same time tomorrow and see where the results put me at

I think it's totally possible if you've used enough seeded filter material.

So update I got busy and forgot to test within 24hrs well I tested yesterday my results were
PH 7.0
Ammo 0ppm
Nitrite 0ppm
Nitrates 40ppm
I dosed again last night
My test results proved I am not cycled

PH 7.2 added a bigger piece of coral that I had in my 55 to help raise it some more
Ammo 2ppm
Nitrite 0ppm
Nitrate I didn't test
So I've still got a while to go and I plan to stay on top of it this time lol
