In would say no, you need more than one LR. Are you using the same filter?

Depends on how you define an aquarium as cycled. For me, it should be able to handle 2ppm of ammonia, though 1ppm works too. If you dose at least 1ppm of ammonia and it can be consumed within a day, you are good.

Fyi, most people here that want to help you aren’t going to accept “levels are perfectly normal.” They are going to want you to post your actual readings in order to give you the most accurate advice. Cheers.
