Hi everybody,
Thanks for all the help/advice with the tank cycling (or lack thereof!).
I did a 25% water change last night, added some of the gravel from my old aquarium (an inch of water or so was still in the old tank with the gravel, but I took out my old filter a few days ago, so using that filter in this tank isn't an option). I do have a few zillion little snails still in the old tank, so hopefully that was enough to keep the bacteria alive??
I also had a small philodendrin rooting in a glass of water, so that plant is now floating on top of my tank, as I read that the roots help eat up nitrite.
Levels before I went to work this morning were: Nitrite: .25, Nitrate: 30, Ammonia: .5
Fish are acting normal.
