Hi all
im new to fishkeeping so will need as much advice as possible, took delivery of a juwel rio 240 2 weeks ago. Was going to do a fishless cycle, but lfs advised me to cycle with neon tetras, wish i had gone with my original plan after reading more info on cycling. Anyway im 8 days in and all fish are still fine,(15 neons) i am testing daily using API master kit and have done 15% water change today. stats as follows, ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 0, ph 7.2, temp 26celcius. Should i not be getting ammonia readings yet? is my test kit faulty? Confused.
