    Fishless Cycle stuck- on nitrites

    Hi All, Just wanted to update everyone that I had that BEAUTIFUL blue nitrite test today!! Going to test one more time to make sure ammonia and nitrite drop to 0 in 24 hours but I'm SO PUMPED!! In case anyone runs into this issue, I did a MASSIVE water change a few days ago- I'm talking like...

    Fishless Cycle stuck- on nitrites

    I have the same lid for my tank! I saw a youtube video about it and thought it was genius. Going to be so great maintaining the cool water that axolotls need and allowing me direct some fans at the water to keep things cooled off :)

    Fishless Cycle stuck- on nitrites

    Thanks so much for your response! Glad to hear I'm seemingly doing everything right! Have gotten to the point where I'm considering a fish-in cycle. If I were to switch to a fish-in cycle, would I just get a few hardy fish and let it finish out? Would I need to do daily water changes to keep...

    Fishless Cycle stuck- on nitrites

    Hi All, Just joined this group as I'm desperate for some advice and not sure where else to look :( I started my fishless cycle 50 days ago and all was going well. I started off with Dr. Tim's One and Only and his Ammonia concentrate. Everything started off great- Ammonia dropping from 2ppm to...
