So I'm still trying to cycle my tank... I know these threads are prolly getting annoying but... . I just checked the stats on my tank. My boyfriend had me add 1/2 a tablespoon of ammonia to it last night saying that otherwise all the bacteria I have grown would die.... I did a 50% water change yesterday on Menagerie's advice since my nitrite and nitrate were ridiculously high. I checked the stats this morning on the tank when I woke up and right now ammonia and nitrite are between .25-.50ppm each, and the nirate it still pretty high, about 30 or so. Is this going to work? Should I check it again later in the day and then if the nitrite and ammonia are all the way down do another 60% water change and add a few of my fish? Or am I just screwed no matter what I do? TIA.
