Fishkeeping: Day 19

I have been looking for the Nitrites and Ammonia to go up which indicates that the tank is starting to cycle. I haven't checked the pH in a couple days. Here are the days numbers:
  • Ammonia: 2.0 mg/l
  • Nitrite: 0.0 mg/l
  • Nitrate: 0.0 mg/l
I started doing a larger partial water change. Instead of doing 50% of the water, I'm doing as much as possible without asphyxiating the fish. It takes more of the ammonia out so I don't have to do water changes as often.
