my 32 gallon tank has been cycling for 2 months, it is just finishing up the nitrite cycle, but the nitrite has been hanging at .25 ppm for the last 5 days, its driving me nuts. The ammonia spike ended suddenly the way its supposed to, but I dont know why the nitrite wont come down to zero. I'm really hoping to get some crabs in their soon but I'm getting impatient and starting to think something is wrong. My ammonia level is zero. Any idea's? Thanks
EDIT - i just checked the nitrate which is at 40ppm. Can i consider the tank cycled? Should I do a water change? Should I try adding a few crabs? Thank you.
