GZ_Loach Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Your forgetting about nitrites, it goes ammonia, NITRITES, nitrates, right now i bet that is spiking unless your using a filter that was seeded off mature tank. When its cycled you should see nitrates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueether Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 are there any fish in there at the moment? the bacteria in the filter need something to live on, fish waste or decomposing fishfood, or they wont breed thus the tank cant cycle.
