Those numbers are normal for a cycling tank. Just be patient. The biggest mistake I made when starting out was to get fish before the cycle was complete. I lost a few expensive ones that way. If you are in a super hurry most saltwater fish can handle some nitrites, but never any amount of ammonia. Don't consider anything besides a cheap fish until ammonia and nitrites are completely zero. Snails, shrimp, crabs and coral are more sensitive then fish. What you will notice if you have fish and ammonia is that they tend to become what I call "zombies." They may still be technically alive and breathing, but they don't tend to swim around or eat. They just hide even for a week or more starving to death. I think the ammonia fries their brain.
