Cycling help

[newbie 67]

I have a 35 hex. It has been running for about 2 mths. now. I have around 10 lbs. l.r. and 2 damsels( i know get rid of them). My amonia,nitrates,nitrites are at 0 my ph and salianty are right. What can I do to get this tank to cycle?

It should be done cyclying? How often have you tested your water in the 2 months?

 

[newbie 67]

2 times every week. The levels never moved off zero.

If its been setup and in operation for 2 months its more than liekly finished. You may have gotten some fully cured / cycled live rock and sand and in that case a cycle could be of extremely short duration and easy to miss. I would not worry about it at this stage of the game. Hey if yur satisfied with damsels, go with it. Its yur money you spend it how you like, not how others think yu should. I find damsels just fine personally.

Ok now the million dollar question? What else should I add. I need a cleaning crew some fish,coarls,anomenes any and all sugestions welcome.

Just a thought, have you double checked your test readings against another test kit? While unlikely that every test in the kit would go bad at once, stranger things have happened.

No but I will. I planed on testing until the first of the year until I add more of anything.
