After a couple of week my Ammonia levels have rose to 0.25, Nitrite is 0 and my Nitrate is 0. Might add three more Mollies to speed the Ammonia up more, i'll have eight in there![]()
That reef tank looks amazing.
I might try putting a piece of lettuce in, I heard all the snails will have a go at it.
Variety of all different kinds of cichlids will be alright

Moving a tank next week that has a $20000 fish in it. Fark.
Starting to get nitrite levels even though my ammonia levels haven't rose much above 0.25, no nitrate as of yet
Are you leaving the ammonia test to run its full timeframe before comparing the results to the chart? I think that brand is either 5 or 10 minutes? The test kit I'm using at the moment is 20 minutes!
10 days ago I had readings of 0.25 ammonia, 0.50 nitrite and 0.50 nitrate. I was going for a holiday for those 10 days so I done a 20% water change and used a gel feeder thing for the 5 mollies. When I came back home I tested and I have 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite and 5.0 nitrate.
Done another 20% water change and still have 0 ammonia and nitrite but with 4.0 of nitrate, think its finally cycled
How cool is this tank:
