I purchased a 10G to eventually house my guppies (they are currently in a 3G and need an upgrade) and have been cycling for 5 days now with 3 zebra danios. They all appear in good health and I have been strip testing water every day. My readings are Nitrate 0, Nitrite 0, Hardness 25, Chlorine 0, Alkalinity 40, and pH 7.2.
Most of the posts on here state that fish-in cycling can take 6-8 weeks. My tanks has not even cycled for a week and yet my nitrate and nitrite remain at 0 with no spikes. Does this mean my tank is cycled and ready for more fish or do I need to keep waiting and testing?
Appreciate any and all responses!
