    The water isn't really the reason a tank cycles(to an extent). It's the anaerobic bacteria that colonize on the rocks. :)

    Keep it up girl!!! I will add my first fish in about one week---- after waiting for 5 weeks.... that was the toughest time!!!! Ordered the tank in September and it's been cycling now for 5 weeks.... just wanted to take my time and be "patient" ... which is one of the hardest things.... but I made it :)

    its one helluva boost to a system that has colonize it all on its own.
    The rock and water from her 30 will colonize the sand and her other rock in that system with no die off :)

    I was planning on moving everything into my 90, but my fish are so happy and established in my 37, thinking about catching them, moving them..uggh stress! Plus, with two tanks, I can have a greater variety of fish!! ;D

    I know, the waiting is horrible!! But it does help work on our patience, or lack thereof. ;)
