so today is the 2 week mark. I dont have any signs of algea or diatoms yet. Can you check my numbers and tell me if im on the right track? i added bio-spira on startup. and have been ghost feeding

DATEHR PHAMMONIANITRITENITRATE
1/2/208.20010 PPM
01/03/20208.10020 PPM
7.800.25
1/97.80.50
1/118.20.25120ppm
Salinitly is 1.026
now my question is, i hav a bottle of dr tims one and only someone gave me. Will it hurt my cycle if i add it tonight? im assumingit will only add to my bacteria.

I have a 20 gallon tank with canister filter and a hang on back skimmer.
 
You are on track. I would add the recommended dose of Dr. Tim’s over the next five days while continuing to feed. Once your Ammonia and Nitrites read 0 for a few days while continuing to feed, you are good to go. I would then add a few fish but wait at least 2 months before adding any difficult corals. Best of luck!
 
Go for it - Dr. Tims = Good stuff !
