Finally, my 10g tank has cycled. I started the tank in mid May. I interrupted the first cycle by beginner mistakes: adding more fish too soon, overfeeding, excessive vacuuming of gravel, etc. So now I can finally add a couple more small fish. I'm happy. There is something to be said for patience, patience, patience and water changes.
Im glad that it is cycled, luck for all the years youll have the fish =D

Cycling is a true test of patience of man. Also a huge pain in the rear but really necessary with the small tanks.
Congrats! You can start stocking maybe 4 fish every two weeks. Whatcha gonna put in your tank?

Congratulations! Yep, it's a patience builder, but a good safe one! We can't wait to see pictures of your tank and your fish! Enjoy!

I cycled with fish and they survived the ordeal. I want to add a couple more neon tetras so they can keep the others company. I also have 3 gold barbs. I'm thankful for all the great information on the forum.
