20 Gallon is Prepared and Done with Cycle

^Agree fully, just make sure your next mix for your next water change is at 1.025 and left for 24 hours before adding it to your tank

Looks nice.

If you take out a gallon of tap water and leave it somewhere to evaporate fully, or heat it to force evaporation, is there any residue left in the container? If so this is what gets left in your tank for every gallon that evaporates. It will likely do-in your tank chemistry.
 
yeah, if your water is anything like the water in my area, phosphates, nitrates, etc are really high and are going to cause trouble... especially algae. bah!!
