Cycling my 125

[Cmajor]

You are getting too caught up with numbers that just dont matter right now. Want to end the confusion? Toss the shrimp, add a fish and monitor your ammonia. Once you get tired of testing zero ammonia, you can put your mind at ease.

You are combining several cycling methods right now, a slow fishless cycle using a shrimp and instant cycle using bottled bacteria.

Thankyou for this

Well just realized i made a mistake on the nitrates test when i played back the video from my security cameras. I forgot to add the 3rd part of the mixture after shaking for 60 seconds. Got distracted by the kids. I went back and tested everything today and this is where im at
