Hey guys
Been surfing around on SD for quite some time now and am very impressed with everyone here so thank you so much. I am doing my first fishless cycle and had a question of the timeline of things. Here are some specifics
60 gallon
Sand substrate
Silk plants
Ph 8.0
Prime conditioner
Driftwood
Canister filter w/ Ehfimech rings, substrat pro, purigen
Temp 84F
NO FILTER MEDIA TO START OFF
Added ammonia up to 5 ppm and has slowly made its way to 2 ppm. Still have no traces of nitrites after 25 days...my question is do I need to continue to "sit and wait" or is there something I'm doing wrong in this whole process? Thank you for any and all input
