Hi All,
I've been fishless cycling my 20 gallon tank for some time now and appear to be getting nowhere. I am using ACE brand janitorial strength ammonia and the API freshwater master test kit. The log is attached. The ammonia appears to have been dropping a very little bit for weeks and weeks now but no nitrite or nitrate.
Any advice?? I can't figure out why it is not starting. Unfortunately, I had nothing to seed it with so was hoping nature would kick in...Should I try to add Tetra safestart or something else like that?
