Went to my LFS about 2 weeks ago. Ammonia read 0 pmm. Nitrites read .50 ppm. Nitrates read 0 ppm. My LFS advised to start dosing Seachem Stability. They advised me to do once dose and . let it go a week and currently my readings are:
Ammonia: 1.0 ppm
Nitrite: 1.0 ppm
Nitrate: 10 ppm

Is this normal after dosing or is this something that I should be concerned about?

Looks like since dosing your cycle has started. Have you added an ammonia source to feed the bacteria? If so this is the normal process.
