Cycle over?
After nigh on three weeks of nitrite dropping by a consistent amount each day, I decided to post on the Practical Fishkeeping forum regarding it not speeding up. The reply on there would suggest that the cycle may well be complete, but I’ve been overdoing the ammonia. I tested at 20:00 this evening and it was just over 0.1ppm and I’ve just done another test and it is somewhere between 0 and 0.1ppm. I’m not adding any ammonia until the nitrite is 0, which it should be in the morning. I’m then going to try with 8ml instead of 10ml.
On Friday I’m planning an experiment where I’m going to add ammonia at the start of the day and then test at 30min – 1hr intervals and record the results. Should be interesting.
