Aquarium bacteria cycling question for experts?

Ok, do not worry about the nitrates if it is a freshwater tank. For the nitrites, I would get a product at a local petsmart, or petco that locks the nitrites making them non-toxic. Test your water again, and check to see if nitrites are zero, and nitrates if its saltwater. Then when they are zero, do a 20% water change, and you are set. If it goes back up, make sure to add the lock, and do the change sometime in that week
