maligne Posted December 29, 2021 Report Share Posted December 29, 2021 I'm in the middle of a fishless cycle for a 15 gallon. I got home after work today tested my water and was happy with my results. The tank is cycling, ammonia was down and nitrates and nitrites where up. After testing with out thinking and being as tired as I was I poured the nitrite and nitrate test vials back into the tank. I did a 50% water change and dosed it with aquavitro seed. Will this crash my cycle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cgy_Betta_Guy Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 Would imagine the 40 or so drops of chemicals from the test kits would be diluted quite a bit in 15 gallons and after your 50% WC. You will probably be fine but guess you will find out on subsequent tests. Let us know how it turns out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maligne Posted January 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 Sorry for the late reply. I appreciate the response. The tank cycled just fine I did another 75% water change a day before we stocked it with koi tuxedo guppies. The tank is doing great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
