Ok so I have a 75 gallon tank started. Temp is at 82.4, PH 6.8, ammonia 1.0 ppm, 0 nitrite, 0 nitrates. There are 5 blue flame tetras and 3 loaches. I have been using Amquel plus to neutralize the ammonia. There are 10 live plants in the tank. Is this ammonia reading normal for week 2? I know I shouldn't have gotten fish but hey I read you can cycle with fish in. I used API quick start when I set up and added in some API aquarium salt for stress. I have not done a water change yet. I just want to make sure I am rolling still with this cycle. Any constructive advice?
