So I've been cycling for 3 days now, and I have been adding what I thought was a sufficient amount to my tank, maybe a tablespoon or so a day, I don't have a dropper so it was impossible to do that, and the price of the test strips was so much that I'm trying to conserve them as much as possible... (definitely wish I bought the liquid test kit...) But anyway, I have not gotten a reading for nitrate yet, however I just received a reading of 1.0 ppm for nitrite, is this ok? Could it have anything to do with the nitraban that I put in my aquarium before I cycled it? And what should I do about it? Is a water change mid-cycle an option?? Thank you all for taking the time to help me out.
