New tank cycling questions

[FishBoyJay]

So my tanks been cycling for 5 days

60 gallon cube

Using beightwell ammonia and bacteria

Dosed to 2 ppm ammonia
And been doing 12 ml bacteria daily as the bottle suggests


Should i be seeing anything happening? Ammonia leavels have gone down alittle nitrites and nitrates are up. Visually i see nothing. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated.

Ammonia should be going down. Nitrites should go up and then back to 0 with Nitrates going up. Once you're seeing Nitrates going up, you're headed in the right direction.

Keep doing what you're doing and you'll have a thriving reef tank (or FOWLR if that's your desire) soon!
