Ok so I have been cycling my tank coming up 3 weeks now and I am at a loss here's what Ive done so far. My tank is a 40 long, I used about 35 pounds of dry STAX rocks with few pounds of live rock, I started adding aquavirto SEED from the start, then I added dr Tims ammonia chloride, then added dr Tims one and only couple days later ( I did notice that the bottle was expired by few months not sure if that really matters ) so after that I been testing ammonia every day and noticed my ammonia was initially 1ppm. That was yesterday I tested, today I tested and my ammonia is at 2ppm which I noticed right away the API test was a lot darker from perivious test. My ammonia has not gotten over 1ppm besides today, which this dose not make any sense to me why would it be going up and not down?? Ph is fine, I did notice a slight film on the glass, and the lights have not been on since the start. I was all for letting it run its course but now I think something is up if the ammonia is rising and not falling, any help or insight even from randy would be great!
