I Have been in fish cycling my twenty gallon tank for around six weeks. I have had my ammonia spike already and the majority of my nitrite spike. My nitrite levels have been ranging from 0.5-1 for the past week. My ammonia levels have steadied at 0.25 because I have 0.25 ppm in my tap water.... However they have now risen to 0.5 for some reason. Does anyone know why and how I can fix it?? Also the water is cloudy and I haven't anything new to it recently. My ph is 6.4-6.6. ( have crushed coral in my filter to try and raise it), I have no nitrates, and I use amquell plus to treat my tap water... Any suggestions would b great! Thx!
