Hello,

- Cycling new 135 gallon tank
Started the cycle 2.5 weeks ago
Used fritz turbo and bottled ammonia to 2.0 ppm
Also threw in some liverock i had from another smaller system thats been up for about 18months into the sump.

Using the Hanna tester my ammonia is reading 0.05 for going on 3 days now and i'm wondering if its safe to toss in 2 clowns or should i wait it out another few days.


Thanks
 
It would probably be okay but might be a good idea to wait a few days just to be safe. This hobby is a lot easier with a little patience and time
