    Ammonia dropped to 0 past 3 days nitrite down to 1 waiting for it to drop to 0 for a few days also and i think ill be cycle. :) Now im getting excited lol

    My EcoBak pellets came in today and everything is ready to go online at the end of the cycle.Im starting to get diatoms so a reef cleaners purchase will be one of the first.

    Should I go ahead and start skimming so it will be broke in and start my pellets so they can be going through their cycle? Also when my nitrite are at 0 for a few days and my cycle is over I was gonna do a 20g w/c does that sound about right for around 60 to 65 total gallons after displacement from rocks sand etc.

    rimless tanks are by far the most interesting tanks out there, minimalist aquascaping is very aesthetically pleasing and clean looking compared to the typical rock wall of a rectangular aquarium.

    So for some reason my nitrite have went up to 4 and im worried my cycle is stuck on nitrites. Ive read a couple forums where a partial water change helps then ive read some where not to so if I could get some answers on whats the best route to take. I was dosing MB7 but I stopped before a week because I was getting cyno
