Yet another cycling question

[pinballqueen]

Okay, I might have missed this...

Did you mention if you tested your tap water for nitrates? That could be why they're not going down when you do water changes...

If you have already said whether or not you did this, then never mind...

My tap water has no Nitrates, Nitrites, or Ammo.

ITS WORKING!!!!

All the water changes (and adding the crushed coral to stabilize things) seems to be working.

Last night I loaded up the ammo to make sure I was at 5ppm. Todays Ammo reading? ZERO! ZILCH! NADA! Weeeeee hoooooo!

And the Nitrites are fading...

Thing is... Im almost out of ammonia... (I guess from all I used during the Cycling my Bathtub thing) Ill have to get some more from Walmart tomorrow.
