    yes, you don't want to keep ammonia within a certain range, you want it to fall eventually - just keep feeding a small amount every other day.

    So the cycle parameters today are:

    Ammonia: 0
    Nitrite: 0
    Nitrate: 20

    I do believe it's happened haha. It's been a long and boring three weeks but it's happened. I'm going to start a build thread for this tank on the Show Off Your Tank thread. Thanks you guys for all of your help!!! I'm sure to have lots more questions in the near future as I start adding my first inhabitants.
