55 gal cycling question-Help
I am new to AA and I have been cycling(fishless) my 55 gallon since 2/2. I just took readings this evening and show:
NO3= 5 ppm
NH3/NH4= .25 ppm
N02= 5 ppm
pH= 8.2
Temp= 81 deg F
Question is should I dose the tank with ammonia to get the NH3/NH4 levels back up to at least 3 ppm?
When should the Nitrite level start to drop?
thanks-
