Cycled??

First off, I did use the search feature, but couldn't find a thread for my specific question. My tank has been up and running for a little over 2 weeks now. I used about 7 lbs. of sand from my established tank, and about half a cup of water form my established tank. I added LR 4 days ago, it didn't look like there was much to "die off". I tested the water yesterday, and here were the results I got:

 

pH: 8.2

Nitrite: 0 ppm

Ammonia: 0 ppm

Nitrate: 10 ppm

 

Does this mean my tank is already cycled, or does it mean I have not realized my ammonia spike yet?

Thanks.

Was the live rock you added from your established tank as well? If so, you're probably already cycled. If you had it shipped in, you've probably got a way to go.

Yeah, I added tonga live rock that I ordered online. So, you are probably right. It's ok though, I'm still recovering from when I totaled up how much I've already spent.:*(

Thanks.
