I'm in the process of cycling my 47G tank. It doesn't seem like it's cycling normal. I do have 2 damsels in the tank (I have other tanks for them if the water parameters get too bad...I wouldn't hurt them) It just seems like instead of the numbers going up and comming back down, they are all over the place. Here are the results of the tests from the beginning. What do you suggest?

date ph temp salanity ammonia nitrite nitrate
7-22 8.4 74 1.024 .25 0 10
7-28 8.0 78 1.024 .25 0 5
7-31 7.4 78 1.024 .25 2.0 10
8-4 8.2 78 1.024 .50 0 5
8-7 8.4 76 1.024 0 .50 10
8-8 8.4 76 1.024 .25 .25 10


Thanks for any help.
