I set up my tank about 4 weeks ago, added water, dechlorinator, turned the heat up to about 80 degrees F, ran my biofilter, and added pure ammonia. 4 weeks later, my ammonia levels are still high, and nitrites and nitrates are non-existant. It's as if nothing is happening. I am sure this is a result of no bacteria being present in my tank, but why? I follow the directions people give on fishless cycling to a tee, Is there something I can do to help it along?
And I do not have access to someone else with a tank so it's not practical to get something from an established tank to add to mine, thanks.
