I have a 125 g with LR and LS that has been cycling for 3 weeks now. Within 3 days of set up the ammonia spiked at 2.5. 1 week in the ammonia dropped to .25. My current readings are:
temp 75 F
SG 1.024
Alk Normal
Ammonia .25
Nitrite .05
Nitrate 10
I've tested just about every day and these #s haven't changed in 2 weeks. I have the Red Sea Test Kit right now. Went out and bought the Salifert for Ammonia today and that test shows zero.
So should I just wait another week and then bring a water sample to the LFS? Do I bring a sample in this weekend to the LFS? Should I just wait? I know, patience. I'm just concerned I'm not testing right (those colors are so close in some of those tests!) :help:
