    hey every1
    I've started cycling my tank for the guppies & I wanted to know what should I have ina test kit? I know I need to test for ammonia, nitrAtes & nitrItes but is there nething else?

    Thanks

    Those are the main 3. You can also test for pH, KH, and GH, but they're not as important and don't have to be monitored as closely. As long as the pH is somewhere between 6 and 8 and is stable, it's fine. And as long as the KH and GH are both between 100 and 300 and are stable they're fine.
