Thank you all the wonderful information and replies I have gotten here it has got me through the most dificult part and is greatly appreciated.Well as of Friday my cycle was finished amm. 0 PPM. nitrite 0 PPM. nitrate 20 PPM. I did a 50% pwc. Now my only problem is I have been useing RO water because my well water is high in nitrate an traces of nitrite (darn farmers and there chemicals) so now I have to ad buffering cappabillits(KH) to my tank. Know how to go about this I have gotten used to doing a 50% change every week and don't really mind doing it (only 29 gal tank) so I don't think that shells will be right for me as that would create a large differences in my water at changing so I was considering adding the ready to go additives and I was wondering if anybody could recomend a brand and type (powder or liquid) also should I mess with the GH as well and if I should what is a good way to go about that. Thank you for any information.
