We finally put our betta fish into his 10g tank today! It's fully cycled and he is loving being in there again after almost 2 months! It only took 20 days to cycle, woohoo! We did the 4ppm to 0amm 0nitrites 3 times, so, yeah! Did a 90% water change today, nitrates went from between 80-160, and they were at 10 when we plunked him back in.
We aren't going to add any other fish for another week or two, so in the meantime, do you think that he will produce enough ammonia by himself to keep the beneficial bacteria going? If not, is there anything we can do other than adding ammonia to the tank? (which I wouldn't do except maybe a couple drops but I hesitate to even do that).
Thanks
