Cycling plan disrupted-help with cabomba

[shwin]

I had planned to cycle my tank with lots of plants... I found a site with some really good deals and they were supposed to ship to me on Monday to be received on Tuesday... Well it never arrived and I sent an email and still haven't heard from them. I didn't even get a receipt from them via email. Anyway, I was hoping that because I'd have a tank full of plants the ammonia and nitrite levels wouldn't skyrocket, but now that I'll have to wait, I'm worried that my cabomba (that I placed there from another tank I have) might be harmed from the fluctuations in the water, should I remove it?? Or leave it be?

The tank is a 10 gal, there's about 15 stems of cabomba. So far I haven't had more than .5 ammonia but I know my nitrites are still going up.

IMO your plants(cabomba) should be ok... Fish are the ones that will not like the high nitrites/ammonia. Plus those plants should be covered in good bacteria which will help seed this new tanks....
