New 29g planted ?cylcing
I'm a newbie here just starting out with this hobby. First tank 29g, with plants, fluval 205, 100watt heater, eco-substrate, been adding "cycle" , temp at 80F
Ph- 7.6
Ammonia- 0.25 ppm
Nitrate- 10 ppm
Nitrite- 0.2 ppm
Question is were am i with the cycle, tank has been running for 2.5 weeks, and should I be adding anything else?

The other link is a link to "fishless" cycling. There is no reason to do a "fishless" cycle on a planted tank.

Have you added plants? If not, do it now. What lighting do you have?

I assume the fungus is on the wood? What color....white? I've been having terrible experiences with algae & driftwood, next tank will not have ANY!!
If it's on teh wood you could take it out and boil it, soak it in bleach solution (& then rinse) or any number of things.
55w is a good amount for the 29g, you will be able to grow most plants.

yes you are correct white fungus is on the wood, I think I will have to try that.
