The initial cycle appears to be complete so now I recommend a water change before adding one or two starter fish. Remember, the “cycle” never really finishes, we just want to build up enough bacteria to process the waste from our first fish. After that, changes in bioload will automatically be accommodated as long as you go slowly. GL
