I am new to cichlid aquarium set up and have just started a thirty gallon cichlid tank. I have started to cycle the aquarium but have made a big mistake. I have introduced two cichlids to speed up the cycling after a pet shop employee suggested it. Now after reading more about ammonia and nitrite levels I am afraid my fish will be adversely effected by a level of 4.0 ppm ammonia level and .50ppm nitrite level (last time i checked). from what iv heard my levels will probably raise even more before balancing out... im concerned about either having long term affects on my fish or even loosing them... so i need advice on what i should do to ensure healthy fish.
any advice will help thanks!
