90 gallon tank with sg of 1.023. 60 lbs base rock, 45 lbs lr from foster smith, and 10 lb of rubble for the canister and hob filters, and about 4 lbs lfs lr. i put the rock in 1 1/2 weeks ago, and took my sample with me to the lfs yesterday, and he said my no3 was way too high and that the nh3 and no2 was zero. so he seemed to think that i already cycled with the "dirty lr" as he put it. i took the lr out dunked it in a bucket with my sw and did a 15 gal pwc. i tested it today and still no nh3, no2 and no3 was around 10 ppm. am i done cycling? no brown algae or bloom for that matter. any opinions?
thanks again!
