correct. cycling will be complete when ammonia and nitrIte registers at 0. no need at all for chemicals to remove the ammonia. and 25% percent a week should be more than sufficient to remove the nitrAtes. although if you tank is not that overpopulated, you would be able to get away with 25% fortnightly.



correct me if i'm wrong.
