  1. Hi everybody:

    I am currently cycling my tank for 2 weeks now, by using fishless cycle with live plants

    I put Ammonia (Dr.Tim) into my tank, and raise the level to 2ppm as suggested, no liquid fertilizer, 5 hrs/day lighting

    1st day reading => Ammonia (2ppm), Nitrite(0ppm), Nitrate(0ppm) 

    ......

    12th day reading => Ammonia(0.25ppm), Nitrite(5ppm), Nitrate(60ppm)

    I think my nitrifying bacteria in the tank is converting ammonia  progressively to nitrate

    Does it mean I am done with cycling the tank once the Ammonia, Nitrite level reaches to 0 ppm ?

    So I can put the live stocks into my tank?
