quick question.
I set up my (10 gallon) tank around 6 weeks ago. A week or two ago nitrites showed up and now they are gone... I think this means that my tank is finally cycled, but I'm also not seeing any nitrates either. So what I'm wondering if 0/0/0 is a sane reading for an unplanted tank (with a fair amount of algae) or if my nitrite test kit could have gotten messed up some how.
TIA
