Default Cycled already?

Hello everyone...

6 days ago I setup my 25G tank with plants and 5 neon tetras. It was a 2nd hand setup I had bought and had been empty for 3 weeks. The pump that came with it was a Eheim Pro II 2026. I only changed the white foam filter in this as the pump was only 6 months old according to the guy I brought it off.
Today I did my first test for ammonia etc. My results for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate all came back at 0ppm.
Has my tank cycled already or has it not even started yet?
Have never done this before and only going on info I have read on the net I was expecting maybe a small ammonia lvl and maybe some trace nitrites.

Any advice appreciated
