Hi everyone! I'm currently cycling my fish tank using fish (I know I definitely should have done the fishless method, but I started cycling with fish before doing my research)
I have a 37 gallon tank with 5 Diamond Tetras. I've had the tetras in the tank for about 1.5 weeks, and I've been doing 20% water changes on a daily basis to try to make this process as easy on the fish as possible. I test my water each day before changing the water. Today, these were my readings:
Ammonia: 0.5
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 0
Should I have Nitrite readings by now? I've been getting 0.25-0.5 reading for Ammonia for about 8 days now. Am I doing something wrong, or will it just take awhile? Thanks!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
