good luck with your new tank. Are you using anything to help your cycle? Such as bio spira or new and improved cycle? Are you doing a fishless cycle or a fish cycle? What type of fish are you using? Do you have any test kits? if so what are your readings? What type of filter are you using? Does it have a bio wheel? Do you have any plants?

A: I do not have any test kits but i do have an ammonia reader that sticks to the side of my tank. It has not showed any signs of alot of ammonia.

A: Yes i have 5 fake plants along with one real plant.

Cycling can take 1-2 months in most cases.

A bottle of NEW AND IMPROVED CYCLE will help reduce the time it takes to cycle. Depending on size the cost will vary. Here a 10 dollar bottle will do for that tank.
