OK, I used Tetra Aqua Safe and Tetra Easy Balance when I set up my tank on Saturday. Put in household ammonia yesterday and got reading slightly around 5. I get readings of 0 nitrite and 0 nitrate, also 0 chlorine and 8.2ph (which I first noticed was high yesterday). This morning I put in Tetra Safe Start. I am beginning to think I should have done Safe Start first, but my question is will the cycle process still work they way I have done it know? Will ph return to normal when the cycle is complete?
