Chase's 31G Tank Starting to come together :D

[lorenz0]

my advice is to wait till march 1st. Take your time, but the only things i would consider adding before than is some hermits and snails. patience is key

[Chase31]

well i'll be getting the water tested pretty often to how the levels are and the CUC will probably go in the 17th earlyest and first fish and soft corals on the first

[Chase31]

well went and got a nutrafin testkit for ammonia nitrate and nitrite levels are as follows
(color matching so not sure)
Ammonia=0-0.1
nitrate= 0-5
nitrite= 0.1-0.3
PH=7.9-8.1

ideas on were my cycle is?

[Chase31]

CuC tommrow... anyone going to stop me?... any ideas on what i should get for my CUC? do i have to feed them?

dont even look like you have had a cycle yet, from what I can see, I would try and say no dont do it, but people are usually set on doing it they just look for the yes and if it does not come they do it anyways.

[Chase31]

lol you pretty much have that right, but the ammonia was insanely high if you look a couple of posts back, and i think the ammonia might be 0 but its hard to do the color match

through the roof with no actual reading, usually implies was not tested. as mentioned you just picked up test kits recently.

You have no mention of nitrate's showing up. As usually through the roof mean's changing out a bunch of water to get rid of them after the cycle. Only speculation from my experiance. Again enjoy your crew.
