Patience, patience, patience

I just wanted to vent with you all. I have started a new SW tank about 6 weeks ago and I am still waiting for it to complete its cycle. I know I have to be patient and take my time to not rush anything but it is just driving me crazy that I am not ready yet! It is like buying a new Ferrari and not going over 15 miles and hour. I am going to take the time and wait and not do anything stupid but I just don’t like looking at 120 gallons of empty water!

Just had to vent a bit!!!
Patience, patience, patience

Do you feel me?

Hi Salvatore, Welcome to Fish Lore.

120 gallon salt water....how cool! I find them fascinating.

I can't wait to see what you do with it. Hang in there, your patience will pay off.

6 weeks is a long time. What are the readings that you're getting??

Thanks for all your support guys. I know that once I am settled I will love it. It just takes time. My ammonia is coming in at .5 and my nitrite at 1. I know that I am just about there and in the home stretch!
