Fish Crazy
Got a 3.5 gallon tank that Iām fishless cycling with pure ammonia. Raised it to about 2 ppm and its been stuck at .5ppm for about five days. Never had a nitrite reading. Nitrates continue to increase, theyāre at about 10ppm. Itās planted with three swords and some floating plants. I used Safe Start to jump start it and it definitely worked. Temperature is 76.8. Used prime to dechlorinate and the pH is alkaline because our tap is alkaline. LED light for the plants. Just wondering if Iām doing something wrong if it is just taking its usual time. I know itās no fast process but we went from 2ppm ammonia to .5 ppm in two days and I want to make sure I didnāt do anything to stall it.
What would happen if I added more Safe Start or Turbostart?
