When adding more water to a tank (evaporation) during a cycle (with prime of course), does this make the cycle longer?

Like said, it shouldn't effect it at all. How are you establishing the nitrogen cycle, fish-in or by adding ammonia? Using the API master test kit I presume?

nope as stated added water for evaporation will not make a dif. long as ammonia present the cycle will continue on just fine.
