For context, this is a completely new 5.5 gal tank with everything freshly bought (no pre-established bacteria or anything). I bought everything and started ghost feeding it 2.5 weeks ago, but I switched to using liquid ammonia four days ago. I re-dosed the tank with ammonia and the test results ~10 minutes after dosing were 4.0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and 0 nitrate. It has now been 16 hours since then and my new test results are 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and 0 nitrate. I’m very confused since it seems too soon for the tank to be cycled, and there hasn’t been any nitrates at all. Has the cycle even started yet? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
