Hi guys,
I've just started cycling my tank, my LFS gave me an ammonia test kit only to start with saying the rest can come later.
Basically told me I should aim to get 3 ammonia spikes (by spike I think they were talking like 0.2ppm something small), using the ammonia chloride stuff from dr tims.
Should I be testing for more? Seeing a bunch of posts saying that Nitrates should be checked as well, anything else? Or is just the ammonia okay for now using this method and then grab a nitrate kit once I'm getting 0 ammonia on the 3rd time?
