This is the test I have been waiting for.
PH it is about 6.7
Ammonia is about .0 ppm this came down from yesterday.
Nitrite is up to 0 ppm
Nitrate is showing up at about 20



You can see all test here.

I am dosing the ammonia to 1ppm today and hopefully it will be 0 ammonia
and 0 nitrites in the morning. Then time to get fish

Fish can’t take high level Ammonia. They do not tolerate high levels nitrites.
My filter is just like setting up a fish tank and it needs to be able to process Ammonia and the nitrites into nitrates in a 24 hour cycle.



The guy I am getting my fish from emailed me today and we are good. I will be getting my tilapia from him.
