water testing question

[H3D]

It sounds like you are doing the test properly.

Are there fish in the tank? Or are you cycling a tank? If you are doing a fishless cycle you really wouldnt need to do a water change unless you are just wanting to get the readings down to something you can read on the test easier..... If you have fish in the tank then you had better start doing some major water changes to get the nitrites down below .25ppm

and start taking the money right from the bottom using a siphone or what ever.

What ? Start taking the money ? I meant start taking the water.

nope, it's in the midst of a fishless cycle, i'll just keep adding a bit of ammonia daily and i'll just wait it out =)

Sounds like a plan....patience is the main thing to have doing fishless cycle
