(Also do i need to keep providing ammonia source until its fully cycled?)
 
Hi and Welcome to R2R. 🙂

What products did you use to cycle?

The tank is likely cycled, but that is quick.

I just used small shrinp as ammonia source and Api quickstart as nitrifying bacteria. Ima give it another week before checking the parameters
