The ammonia spike up in the center data, and back down, plus meeting the dates on the bottle = cycled plus we linked an exact same start plus outcome. No zero is required, you’ll be lucky if the tests show zero even when your tank is stocked.
Ur cycle was easy to decode. We talk in Daniels thread above how nitrite does not factor any longer in reef cycling, though it used to. Your reef here is about to follow the timeframes Daniels has followed. All of today’s cycling methods are conflicting, it’s indeed hard to know which mode to choose. Just know for starters, that everyone believes they cannot make the timeframe on the bottle. But they can. The portion of the directions that mention nitrite, it’s ironic we can ignore those requirements they used to be such an important part of cycling. Not for reefing, this is the updated way of cycling which matches reef conventions who never, ever, fail to meet a start date with very expensive instant reefs that can run as long as needed. They do not factor nitrite in the start date since nitrite is neutral impact in reefing. They know ammonia control is all that matters, no zero required only movement down and with that info all reef conventions with thousands and thousands of reefs always start on time, twenty years worth.
