The results are after 2 weeks of cycling, unfortunately, i didn't take readings when I only had 4 fish to cycle. These results are with about 6 platies, and 2 very small catfish and 3 small algae eaters. It's a 4ft tank, 48" * 14" * 18" tank with a fluval 405 after the initial two week period.
Day NH3/NH4ppm NO2 PH Temp
Day 1 0.25 0.2 7.6 26
Day 2 0.25 0.5 N/A 27
Day 3 0.25 0.2 N/A 27
I added some PRIME & Cycle after day 2 test. The results are from Red Sea test kits.
My question is mainly around the ammonia, I'm curios as to why I'm not seeing any fluctuations here. I'm planning to do a partial water change tomorrow if the results are the same. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thank you kindly.
