Cycle Stalled?

Hey guys. I have reason to believe my cycle has some how come to a stall. Here is why below. I'm wondering what I can do.

Over the last week I have been testing. And my Ammonia hasnt changed. Its been at 1.5- 2.0
My nitrates have also been around the same about 20
and nitrites about 1.0

I have been testing ammonia for the last week and it hasnt moved.

Over the last 3 weeks this is what has happened.

1 day added substrate(CC) , Saltwater mix, system started and running, started adding Byozym everyday.
Second day added large raw shrimp.

2nd week added 50 lbs dry rock from Marco
end of second week pulled rotting shrimp out that was polluting water
terrible.
Also added 10lbs of LR.

Now into week 3.
Is there something else I should be doing?

 

nope, your doing the right thing. some cycles can last up to 6 weeks every tank is different though. its just a waiting game till your ammonia goes to zero.

also if your detecting nitrates then your cycle is moving along as planed.

 

I'm thinking that huge shrimp overloaded the tank with ammonia and thats why its almost at a stalled state?

 

Nothing wrong with the overloaded ammonia, gives more fuel for the Nitrites to grow with. My initial cycle took almost 8 full weeks to complete on my 90.
