I just started my first fishless cycle yesterday, and while testing the ammonia today I did the pH for kicks. It is really high - I have to get a new high pH kit if I want to know what the reading is. Is this usual?
Thanks!

pH is unstable during the cycling process. It will settle down once you are finished and have a mature tank.

Thanks. I'll just keep following the fishless cycling instructions and wait for things to settle.
