Day 9:

February 15, 2009

And we have a SPIKE!

NO2 0.5-8ppm (closer to 8)

NH3/NH4+ 1.5-3.0 (closer to 1.5)

This is what I’ve been waiting for! Now if the Ammonia keeps going down and the nitrites level off and then decline we have a cycling tank people!

Or at least the beginnings of a cycled tank. I will have to keep feeding the tank ammonia until I get fish for the tank so the bacterium doesn’t starve. Today’s results are a good sign that the ammonia cycling is working.

Will update again very soon…as in a soon as it takes to type up today’s readings!
