Okay, I'm not good at tying all this out so I'm going to post a link you can read from start to finsh, not much to read and is very good info for someone new to the hobby of fish tanks. If you want skip down to fishlab's 6 step cycle method, but I would just take it all in. Cycle Your New Aquarium The EASY Way (Beginner Friendly!) - FishLab
Okay so I read back through some of your old post to see when you started this tank. In that thread some folks said to put some cheap fis in it to help cycle the tank (plz tell me you did not do this) if you did its okay you're new to the hobby and did what someone suggested.
Oh ok thanks, will check it out thanks again.
