Cycle doesn't do a darn thing IMO. However, there's a product here by SERA called nitravec (i think that's what it is) and it worked quite well for me.

there it is.

I put it in when the ammonia started to climb out of control and in 3 days it was GONE as well as 0 NO2! I had no LR at this time either.
