Hello all,
First post in here. Started cycling my new tank 14 days ago and just wanted to know what's going on inside my tank.
The setup is as follows:
45 gallon tank
Aquaforest rocks (Dry)
Crushed coral substrate (Dry)
Nano Taro rolls x 15
After setting up, I filled in the water and added Seachem Stability for a week as recommended. Been monitoring the ammonia, nitrite and nitrate levels from day 3.
As it stands now, the test kits are returning 0 ammonia, 0.5 to 1 Nitrite and about 50 Nitrate. The problem is, the nitrite level is not going down for a while.
Has the cycle completed?
