    Standard ammo, Nitrxte, ph levels for cycling tank?

    I don't think there are such standard. But, Your tank is doing OK IMO. Next you will see Ammonia drop to 0, Nitrite will go up then drop to 0, and Nitrate will go up. When Ammonia and Nitrite are 0, and Nitrate is down to around 20, then the cycle is over.

    help with first tank- what to buy!

    WELCOME! If it's a FO tank, $500 or less will get you something good. But if you want Reef, than it will more than likely double the price. You can search for used stuff for better price.

    I think nano is good thing because you can learn more just to take care a nano. And when you get to a bigger tank, that would be a piece of cake.

    First Attempt at SW - 10 gal

    LR may or may not give you cycle, best to put a raw dead shrimp in there for the cycle. And get your test kit ready.
