Question...
I'm trying to do a fishless cycle by feeding the empty tank fish food and letting it decompose. I did this almost three days ago and the water is still reading negative for even the slightest trace of ammonia. Am I doing something wrong, or does it just take longer for ammonia to build up?
Also, any suggestions on fishless cycling would be most appreciated. I don't plan to add fish to this aquarium for atleast another week or so.
Thanks
