Well my betta is in for his third day, showing no signs of stress. I've tested every day for Ammonia and NitrItes, including today, and they're both at zero. I added about a dixie cup full(Those small cups some people put in their bathrooms) of gravel from the 5g, and put it inside my filter. Do you think my tank had no cycle? Would bacteria from all the plants in the tank(look at last post), and gravel I put in instantly cycle the tank? If so, should I wait atleast a week until adding Ghost shrimp, and continue testing every day for Ammonia and NitrIte just incase the added bacteria didn't instantly cycle the tank?

Oh, lots of questions
