2 Week Hols, Fish In Or Out?

Thanks all.

I've been using the add to 5ppm and wait method.
I,ve been testing every 12 hours for the last week and found that the ammonia and nitrite return to 0ppm
after this time.
Is that right?

oh and I started the cycle 19/12/09

Sounds right to me.

As long as ammonia and nitrite are at 0 ppm for one week (after adding ammonia back up to 5 ppm) 12 hours later, then you are cycled.

Nice one.
Its sounds like a trip to the 'not so' local fish shop is in order for the weekend.

I'm thinking along the lines of 6 Rasbora Hengeli, 6 Five-Banded Bards and a pair of Apistogramma.
And maybe some shrimp or oto's.
How dose that sound in a 63l tank?

Yes, sounds like your tank is nicely cycled. Congratulations! WD
