I don't know what level the nitrites constitute a wc. From what I know its .5 for ammonia and 20ppm for nitrate ? What about nitrite ?

So far I have been doing the wc every other day and the ammonia would be hitting the .5 mark every two days but for the past 4 days it is staying below .5 so I havent done wc I would thougjt that maybe nitrites would have shown up but still 0. Is this normal ?

Yup, happened with mine to. Ammonia will fall to zero pretty quick then nitrites start to rise.
