My tank is finally cycled after 2 weeks. I used DR Tim’s ammonia and tetra safe start plus and it worked! BUT I’m ordering peacocks cichlids off of imperial Tropicals the only problem is I can’t order until next week!! It will be a $300 dollar order so I can’t do it this week it has to be next week so realistically I won’t get my fish for another 2 weeks can I just keep dosing ammonia in the mean time until I get my fish to feed the bacteria?!
Help!

Yup; just keep dosing the ammonia and do a big water change the night before they come in. (to deal with the nitrates that will have built up). No big deal!
I’d do a water change to keep readings in test kit range. Won’t impact cycle and may help it as elements like carbonates are replenished.
