Ok, so I've been cycling for a few weeks now. I have what I think are odd readings, and hope someone here can help me make sense of them. I test ammonia, and it reads >.15, which is pretty low, right? Anyway, I tested nitrites and they were about 5ppm. Nitrates were off the charts, 75-100ppm. I am doing water changes to get the nitrates down. My question is, how can I have such low ammonia, such high nitrates and still have 5ppm+ of nitrites? If ammonia so low, shouldn't nitrites be as well? Making this noob scratch his head.
