Currently on day 3 of my cycle, using all new equipment, except for a plastic plant from a cycled tank at a lfs to aid in bacteria growth
ph - 8.2
ammonia - looks to be 1 - 1.5 ppm
nitrites - 0.25 ppm <====
nitrates - 0 ppm
got the heater set at 84 degrees and the water low for extra bubbles
Also any tips for lowering the ph? I know a water change helps but my city has particularly hard water and im looking to make a community tank
