Hi Laura, Whether a given set of test results are ok or not depends on the question that is trying to be answered. For instance, readings might be ok for a fishless cycle, but not ok for a fish-in cycle and both of those might be different than if the tank were finished cycling. Once concern I'd have, regardless, is that those results look like they might have come from a paper strip test. Paper strip tests are worse than useless, they can lead to wrong decisions. One of the first things every beginner needs for learning is a good liquid-reagent based test set. Many of us like and use the API Freshwater Master Test Kit or a few others.
