Fish Fanatic
Hey all, Iām two weeks into a cycle on a thirty gallon aquarium which I plan to use to spawn my Coryās in . I heavily seeded the filter from the start with media from my other tanks and have been using a shrimp head and fish food as my ammonia source. The problem Iāve got is Iāve only had ammonia show up on the api test kit no nitrites and when I reduce the ammonia into the tank itās going back down to zero the day after with no nitrite showing up. My nitrates are around 10ppm . My question is when using seeded media is it possible to not see the nitrites and be cycled because enough nitrifying bacteria were added in the first place??
