hey , this is coming along great man i knew you would do well with it
once you think your cycle is done you can do a large water change to bring everything in range , then you can start to work on your water parameters
get to thinking about how your going to handle phosphates and nitrates export, read up on them and find what you think is your best option
as your finding, patience is the key and while its easy to try to rush it with a bit of time it will all come together
cheers and good job!!
