I have a 29 gallon african cichlid tank with 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, 0 nitrates. The water has been tested with liquid test kits at various lfs and they all give the same readings.
This is after 2 weeks of no water changes! I used to do 50% water changes because I figure that with the fish load it was need but I guess I was wrong. How is it possible to dump that amount of food into a tank and get ZERO water quality issues?
The tank has been setup for 5 years so it has already gone through its cycle a while ago. The tank has absolutely no problems what so ever, all the fish are active and healthy.
Please let me know what you think. I have the same problem with a separate tank, but I think it is do to the plants that are in there.
