My tank has been cycling for almost 4 weeks. I am doing a fishless cycle and at first I accidentally dumped too much ammonia in so I did a water change and replaced it with water from an established tank to help break down the left over ammonia. I am still dosing my tank up to .25 to .5 ppm and waiting for it to come back down to zero. I know once it goes from .5 to 0 in 24 hours it should be fully cycled. But my question is, none of my other levels have spiked. Do I need to add more ammonia or is it more stable because I used water from established tank? Nitrite and nitrate are still at 0 and I thought they were supossed to go up at some point?
