Testing a cycle...advice needed

Ok, I am patiently waiting and testing my tank but I am really not certain where I am in the cycle.
Taking things slow but would feel better knowing what stage I'm at

I'm sure some have read my previous posts regarding my cycle, which is unlike any before.

So I am on day 13.
Cycled with 10lbs liverock, 5lbs base rock, 20lbs livesand(with the bacteria packet)
Been ghost feeding every other day for 4 days, my numbers have not changed.

ammonia 0
nitrite 0
nitrate .10

I have feather dusters on my rocks, hitchiker snails, a very tiny bit of algae showing up on a rock.

Is there any way to test my tank to see if my cycle is done?

thanks so much for all the help

 

I went back to look at your other thread - since you did get ammonia, I'm not sure there's anything you can do at this point given the time and results - I think you are safely cycled. The LR and additional bacteria must have really sped up the process. Congratulations! Please wait for others to confirm my opinion

 

Thank you for your advice. As you said, it happened so quickly it had me in disbelief.

I have never used live sand or the bacteria it comes with. My last tank I used crushed coral and liverock.

 

If you have no live stock you can challenge the tank with pure ammonia/unscented.

Or just stick another tiny piece of raw shrimp in and see if you get an ammonia spike, and how fast it converts to nitrates.

What test kits are you using? It seems like the tank is cycled. You can always take a sample to the lfs to confirm your results. No ammonia, no nitrite = cycled tank.
