    so far so good, keep it up by continuing to go slow etc... dont do that "everything is great, time for a fully stocked tank" stuff. the cycle wasnt short because the parameters are awesome, it was short because the amount of bio-available silica was low. but i am not trying to burst your bubble, things look pretty good and the aquascape is nice. welcome to the hobby!

    (your parents are right, never know when some construction dust my accidentally end up in the tank)
