My (mort75) Fishless Cycle. **update #2**

[r.d.bid]

Well after 22 days of no change or drop in my ammonia i decided to suppliment my tank with Dr. Tims one and only bacteria. All i have to say is WOW this stuff works. only 9 hrs after adding it to my tank i started to see a drop in my ammonia and i got a Nitrite reading for the first time. I tested again when i woke up this morning. So after about 20 hours of adding Dr. Tims im showing a reading of 3ppm ammonia (down from 4ppm)and im showing 0.25 of Nitrite (up from 0) Im exctatic to say the least. Im finaly showing some progress in my cycle.i dont know what the hell was holding my cycle back to start with but i will never cycle another tank again without using Dr. Tims One and Only.

That's great news Mort! Glad that worked out for you.
Keep us posted on how things are going.

today is day 34. My tank has been processing 3 ppm of ammonia down to 0 within a 24 hour period. maybe faster but i havent been able to test at 12 hour intervals. My nitrite shot up to about 5ppm a few days ago and today it was down to about 2ppm and my Nitrate was at 40ppm today. so id say im almost done, hopefully it keeps going good and can get some fish in about two weeks,
