RE: Fishless cycling?
No problem. Glad I am able to help. All of us fish keepers have to go through this part of the learning curve in order to be truly more experienced with fish keeping.
Just make sure the nitrite is also at 0ppm all the time. Nitrite is more toxic than ammonia.
It is recommended to keep nitrate below 40ppm, and it can be done by weekly partial water change of 30~50%. Too much water change can shock the fish with all the fluctuations in water temperature, PH, etc.
Please keep us updated, and I am looking forward to see your 20-gallon aquarium when it is fully stocked.
