Just done stats on my tank and readings are......

Ammonia 0.ppm
Nitrite 0.ppm
Nitrate 5
PH 7.4

Does this mean my tank has cycled or is it to soon to tell?

NitrAtes are still a little low but it looks good so far. How long has it been set up?
 
Thanks Brads. My tank has been up and running now for 5 weeks.
 
If your ammonia nitrite stay at 0 even with ammonia being added for another week and you have noticable nitrates then I would say that you are cycled.

Agree with Marinemom. At 5 weeks you may not be completly cycled (meaning it might change a smidge yet) but pretty close. Either way I wouldn't worry about it. Looking good! :)
 
Thanks for the replies.:)
Will keep an eye on the stats for the next week and see how things go.
