Whats up Reef2reef,
Happy to be back in the hobby after a few years break. I decided to try Dr.tims fishless cycle with Dr.tims ammonia and one and only bacteria, but I am unable to finish the cycle.
I am currently on day 18 into the fishless cycle and i cant seem to get my ammonia and nitrite to drop to zero within 24 hours to finish the cycle. It zeroes out in roughly 30-48 hours. I dose ammonia only when it drops to 0.25-zero ppm of ammonia and nitrite. Do i keep dosing ammonia when the ammonia and nitrite drop to 0.25-zero ppm, until it is consumed in 24 hours?
Thanks in advance,
