Water help

[Oceangirl123]

Hi!
I just got a 3 gallon freshwater tank and just tested the water (cycling tank) and my test said the hardness in ppm is 0-25 ppm, the alkanity is 120-300 ppm, and the ph is between 7.8-8.4 ppm. I was wondering if these levels are normal and If they aren't how do I raise/lower them? Like I said, I'm cycling, so will they change when I'm done cycling?

Thanks!

Those measurements aren't really important when cycling a tank. The ones you really want to keep an eye on are ammonia, nitrite, and nitrAte.
Here's a great article to read to learn about cycling:
