Nitrate : 40/80
am i cycled or not? or if not, what do i do next? im super lost on why i still have .25 ammonia left in there. Also im using API test kit.

Hi and welcome,
Test your tap water and post the readings for ammonia and nitrates.
I suspect the tank is cycled.

I agree. My tap always tests st .25ppm. It’s due to city using chloramine instead of chlorine. No harm to fish. You appear to be cycled. Great job!
