So now that I've been adding fish flakes, and got the API master test kit coming. I need a cycle definition. As I understand it, there's going to be 2 ammo spikes after the first I'm done?

Ok I've been reading up and I'm going to pick up pure ammonia tonight so I can really start one I get my test kit.

It would take a lot of flake food to start cycling a tank that size. I'd just wait on the ammonia.

Why would you wait?

Because I doubt the flake is doing much to cycle the tank, and it's probably making a mess. Lol

Well... That's why I'd wait for the ammonia. Oh, and pet stores don't sell ammonia so the grocery store should be a better bet.

UPDATE!
Cycling may begin!
So this week has proven to be a very productive. I just picked ammonia!
So now I'm into cycling I leave on Monday for England, so I'm going to do a fishless cycle. I is have read up and understand the nitrogen cycle. But considering I leave for England what should I do?
