Fishless Cycle

[riksworld]

Hi All,

I am currently doing a fishless cycle for my new aquarium, this is the first time ive tried doing it this way and its been a while since ive done one, so i thought id post my results so far and see if you people think its going ok or its not right.

Its been 12 days and no big rise in nitrites yet or am I just not being patience enough?

It took me like 2-3 weeks before there was a trace of nitrite, so you're fine. Some cycles take longer than others.

Agreed. It seems to be taking its time but no cause for concern yet. Hang on in there!
