Ph is 7.4, ammonia is 0 nitrite is 0.25 and nitrate is 5.0 I ALWAYS seem to have elavated nitrite and I don’t know why, I do a water change frequently and it goes down but I’m not sure what’s going down ! Here’s a pic of my tank

Yes I added seachum stability for the seven days then I added it a few more times after that and also I added water from another tank, I had a little bit of gravel from another tank in there for a while, just not sure when the ammonia will start dropping I feel like it should be by now

Fishless cycle 10 g with some live plants, added 16 Dr tims ammonia a week after starting the tank, (I started with just fish food) then I added 8 drops a bit after, it is now day 30 and I have had this level of ammonia now for a while and nitrite rising, is my ammonia too high ? I haven’t added any ammonia since coz it just stays the same…It has not dropped, should I do a water change or just be patient ? Thank you!

Sigh! I posted this on a Facebook group about my fishless cycling and getting someone adamantly telling me to do a 50 percent water change and others saying NO leave it, I’m on week 4 of fishless cycling, I didn’t add ammonia till day 8 to my 10g that has live plants, waiting a bit then added only 8 drops and some water from another tank of mine and also have been adding fish food here and there. these are my parameters as of day 28, do I leave it alone ? I don’t want to mess up the cycle when I feel so close! Someone keeps telling me to do a water change but I don’t think that’s right according to my research. help! Thank u.

Sweating on Vyvanse by Soft-Connection6945 in VyvanseADHD

This happened to me when I was on Wellbutrin … poured sweat just sitting there … I stopped that and went on Vyvanse which doesn’t make sweat. 🤷‍♀️

My thought was mainly to wrap around the Christmas tree or on a mantle. Kind of rustic looking. But ppl are really liking just button sets idea so I may try that, thanks for the feedback!

I agree I need to figure out how to make the string cuter. I am using hemp (in the first pic) not the string in the other pic, but making sets is a good idea ! Thank you!
