my first taqnk took little over a week to cycle and all i did was set it running. i tested it at 7, 10 and 12 days and i got results of

ammonia 0
nirite 0.1
nitrate 10

my new tank however has been cycling for a week and still has

ammonia 0
nitrite 0.9
nitrate 40-50

it has been like that for 3 days. i have added good bacteria from my other filter to this one and added some food to help cycle. any ideas to lower it farther
