Today marks the 13th day from when I first filled my tank. After my countless hours of research and total devotion to this hobby, I realized it would take about 4-6 weeks to completely cycle. Though I was disappointed, I decided to be patient and wait it out. Well a couple days ago I tested out of curiousity and noticed that my tank seemed to be "cycled." So I have decided to post the results not only of my tank, but for my tap water as well (after 24 hours).


Tap Water Results:

pH: 7.2
Ammonia: 1.0
Nitrate: 5.0
Nitrite: 0


Tank Water Results:

pH: 7.2
Ammonia: 0
Nitrate: 5.0
Nitrite: 0


Could I have possible obtained an insanely fast cycle of under 2 weeks?! Please respond with any feedback because I am really curious if I really did it.
 
You haven't done a water change, right? Have you tested it with some additional ammonia?
