okay sounds good. By taking the shrimp out you might have saved your tank from another cycle. Remember each time you add something dead likt that in your tank to rot you are basically setting your cycle progress back. In turn it causes your livestock target date back. You might be okay with adding your first livestock to your tank after thanksgiving but i would keep your eye on parms. Ammonia should be 0, Nitrites should be 0 and you might have LOW readings on Nitrates you can rid that or keep it down with small 10% water changes weach week AFTER you add livestock. You don't have to feed the bacteria...

The main purpose of a new tank cycle is when you add liverock and livesand the die off from that will cause a cycle and that could harm your livestock. The amount of die off your sand and rock has makes the size of your cycle. There is no way to measure that though except testing water. small amonia "peaks" does not mean its cycling but that it could be a small cycle. Adding shrimp to help it cycle is like saying "you want the fire to burn out on its own but im going to help it burn out faster by adding gas to it".

So my advice is let it ride. Take out the shrimp and let it just do its thing. In 3 weeks if your parms are in check then add a fish and CUC.
