So my tank has been cycling for 2 weeks. I have Live fiji pink sand, with Caribsea life rock in it. I added pure ammonia 4 times in the last 2 weeks, the ammonia spiked 4ppm all 4 times. first time it took about 48-52hours to cycle the ammonia to nitrites and nitrites to Nitrates about 48 hours. in the last few days, it took 48 hours to cycle Ammonia and nitrites to nitrates in 48hours. So currently, my Ammonia and nitrites are all at 0, but nitrates are high which is normal cause i haven't done the big water change. So my question is, Should i still wait and add more pure ammonia or just transfer my two clowns in it.... At the start i used Bio-spira and i used the stability... So what you guys think??
 
Dose ammonia back up to 4ppm then time how long it takes to reach 0. within 24 hours and you're good. I like to target for 8 hours.
