I just got this up and running and it's been about 4 weeks now. I didn't do a lot of research before hand when it can to cycling so I'm unfortunately cycling it with the fish in but I'm making it as comfortable for them as I possibly can with the knowledge some of you wonderful people have given...

Thank you CAPSLOCK. I did a large water change today and added Novaqua plus to help them cope I will retest in the morning. The mystery snail is almost 4 Times the size of the assassin snails and there are only 2 in there. Do you think it will still be a problem?

Ok so I just did a test and now it's reading .50 Ammonia 0 Nitrite and 0 Nitrate. So how big off a water change do I do? I agree with you there was no way a tank gets those readings cycled or uncycled. I'm sorry I should've done more research before I started this but I'd like to make it as...

When I was putting in the TSS and Stability they went directly into my HOB and Canister so I at least did that right lol I don't have another tank to take media or anything from unfortunately.

I had ammonia readings a week before this happened. And nitrite readings it's just this week I've had 0 across the board. I have done water changes and have been treating with Novaqua plus. I will do another test today and see what I come up with

Yeah I stopped using that that day I got the strange test results. I haven't done any water changes since then either. The water is now completely clear and I'm gonna do another couple of tests today to see if I get anything different. All of the fish are definitely doing well. There colore are...

Ok the cloudiness is almost gone but when I did the tests I got 0 Ammonia 0 Nitrite and maybe a very slight nitrate reading. How is this possible. Would the filters be that efficient? I have the cascade canister 1000 meant for 100 gallons and a top fin HOB for 75 gallons

Yeah I checked it almost 5 Times today. The last 2 Times though I got .25 for ammonia but no nitrites or nitrates. In stumped! I'm the picture the cloudiness looks green but it's actually like a milky white.

Anyone?

Hi! I started a 74 gallon African cichlid tank and have a question. I am sorry I didn't know about the nitrogen cycle when I started it but am trying to do the best I can by this tank. I started it 3 weeks ago and added all of the fish. I read a few days later on the nitrogen cycle after my tank...
