This is exciting!!

My tank is finally cycled!! 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, and 35 nitrates.
It didnt take that long but the wait was killing me!!

I am going to do a water change and then test the water tomorrow and go get 6 panda corrys. I have another thread asking what other fish to put in it. What do you guys/gals suggest?

awesome job!! such a great feeling when that cycle finishes...id go with the corys for now then wait a few weeks..you dont want to throw the tank into a mini cycle so let the beneficial bacteria catch up to the corys bio load ....great job!

At the risk of sounding like Tom Petty, the waiting is the hardest part.

Hey Congrats! It sure is a wonderful feeling to finally see your tank cycled. I remember when my own 55 was cycling. It reminded me of that ole saying " All dressed up and nowhere to go!"... hehe...
Now the fun part begins again... You have a large selection open to you in regards to what kind of fish you would like in there. Im sure you received ideas in your other thread on this.
Have fun and enjoy!

I remember the feeling when my tank first finished cycling. It was a relief after so many weeks!
