[TD="class: alt1"]I'm 2 weeks into cycling and have the following readings:

Ammonia 0ppm
nitrite 5ppm+
nitrate 80ppm

On 3/19 the readings where:

Ammonia 4ppm+
nitrite 4ppm
nitrate 80ppm

Just wanted to know if I'm on track and should I dose some ammonia or just let let it be. Thanks.

Water changes and let it run its course.

I would do a huge water change and that should get rid of them or at least lower them. Do a 40% water change.
