I know you agree
so about a week ago the test said nitrate had gone down and was pretty much the color mof 2.0 but was a a little darker any ways i thought "hey my cycles almost done" and started planning my fish, and now theres may be a little problem it's
been a week and the nitrite hasn't changed yet,
it had already spiked up at least to five, but I didn't reduce the amount of amonia i added cause to tell you the truth i didn't pay attention when counting the first time, another maybe problem is i added some more filter media, didn't remove anything squished all the old stuff into another filter compartment and added buffering gravel. I rinsed the gravel before putting it in but realized it had chlorine so a put abput 1.5 caps of that de-chloreinater into about a half gallon of water and swished the bag around hopeing to get chlorine out but that shouldn't be a problem right cause that was only yesterday and the readings haven't changed in a week and I'm going into fourth/fifth week of the cycle (accidently restarted i think filter was off for over a day)
so tell me what you think, do i have a problem or am just impatient?
