Hi,
I have been cycling for 15 days now, and had a bit of a problem with test results. I'm now using API Liquid Tests but I still need some help to figure out what has/is going on.
Here are my results so far:
This mornings Ammonia test was a bit ambiguous in some lights it looked lemony yellow (0ppm) and others a lime colour (0.25ppm). I erred on the side of caution and logged it as the higher of the two, but will re-test at about midday.
Can anybody shed any light on what is going on, I'm concerned that my nitrates aren't getting high enough to indicate cycling taking place, but I can't get my nitrites up now!
Thanks!
P.S. The bit that says 50% W was a 50% water change to bring ammonia down by half to 4ppm.
