I've been cycling my 45 gal SW tank for a month now and I finally have a nitrite spike (off the chart!) I was beginning to think that I'd never get past the ammonia stage. Now the ammonia is on it's way down and the nitrites are really high.

Just wanted to share my joy ;)

Every day I'm getting a little bit closer to putting something alive in my tank. Dead shrimp are ok, but not very exciting!
 
:laugh: Not the best dinner conversation, are they? :) Be forewarned--nitrites can take longer to go away than ammonia, but it will get there eventually.
