A month and a half seems a bit early to start adding that much live stock, is the tank fully cycled already? How big is the tank? |

How big is the tank? | I thought the same thing... but we were fully cycled within three weeks, added the two fish, and then let the tank roll through the rest of the month and a half... As of right now, I'm still bringing water to the store to test, but nitrites are fine, pH is beautiful, and we have no nitrates... How long did you cycle for? Just out of curiosity... | |
