Yep...gotta wait for ammonia to go down to 0. And then you'll probably be seeing readings with nitrites for a bit.

You're going to hate hearing this but patience is a must with SW tanks. That means everything from waiting for it cycle to how often you add fish into the tank.

Great advice,
-patience is the most important thing you EVER put in an aquarium.
-that being said, I use Fritz-Zyme #9 and cycle in 5 days. It's awsome!
