Thanks to advice I received here, I've got my 15 gal tank up and cycling. I'm doing a fishless cycle, so I added enough pure ammonia to get an initial concentration of 5ppm. I also added a raw shrimp to help the cycling process. Now comes the my questions:
1) Should I continue to add ammonia to the tank? Or is the initial addition plus the shrimp enough?
2) How long should I leave the shrimp in the tank? I don't want it to start growing algae.
3) How often should I change the water during the cycling process?
Thanks in advance!
