the cured live rock i bought came after 5 days, and was slight but bland green/white/purple(live aquatics i believe)
its been cycling for 1 full week so far, and the color has not changed at all
I checked the water params twice so far, both times 0 ammon 0 nitr, but third or fourth color of nitrate
also ph 8.2 constant. The only fluctuation i cant even say with confidence is that the nitrite might of gotten the next step above 0, but was hard to tell, i know it was my bad for waiting a week between tests but now i will check like every 3 days
i cant tell if im already cycled or just not starting my cycle, but the tank doesnt smell bad at all and its sitting in my room
i find it hard to believe my ammonia stays at 0 when my shipping took 5 days, i see a live furry worm that either grows everyday or is leaving the rock, but now its gone and i cant find it. I dont know what to think because i assumed i would have a large amount of ammonia for a while since the die off, but its been at 0 for a week, what should i do
