How close am I????

[rcbc3384]

Hello
I'm in probably the 6th week of my cycling. Diatoms have grown throughout the tank, which all of you said was very good. Now there is an actual fuzz starting to grow over the diatom. My levels are just a little off (Ammonia .25,rites .05, rates 2.5, pH 8.2). Has anyone experienced this pattern; if so, please let me know an approx. time until I can populate.
Thanks

With any ammonia you are still a few weeks out.

how big of a tank, how much live rock/live sand, any critters in there yet?

it's a 55 gal w/45lbs of LR and about 2 to 3 inches of sand. No critters yet. What do you think?

u just must have one of those long cycles..
any level of amonia means you are not done cycling. Have you done water changes during your cycle? this could extend it! Was the live rock cured or uncured? is there still alot of die-off on the rock?
