| PH GH KH Question Cycling Question | |

| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| I am in the process of cycling my tank. I am 5 days into the | |
| fishless process. My ammonia reads 0.50 ppm. Nitrites are at | |
| zero ppm. My nitrates are at 5.0 ppm. Is it time to do a 30% | |
| water change to get the nitrates down? In addition, I have a GH | |
| reading of 161.1 and a KH above 200. My KH was 13 drops. Are my | |
| GH and KH within the norm? I thought the GH was a little low. I | |
| have a constant PH of 8.4. Thanks for your help. | |
