I started this cycle approximately 2 weeks ago. I used fritz 900 bottle. Dropped the whole thing. I added fritz fishless fuel ammonia for the first few days. And ammonia was dropping to 0 after 24 hours. I checked nitrate and its around 20ppm. I stopped dosing ammonia from last week. Do i keep adding ammonia or not nitrite is 2ppm now.
 
Update: Sorry I didnt understand your question properly. Personally I would stop dosing ammonia and when nitrites go 0, I would say cycle is kind of finished. The more ammonia you add the more water change you gotta do in the end.
