Derbird Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 You might want to let your tank cycle before getting any livestock. Its hard to wait but patience is key in this hobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matteo Posted August 31, 2012 Author Share Posted August 31, 2012 my tank is being stocked from my 25 gallon with 9 month cycled rock all I am pretty much doing water chemistry wise is like a water change half the water came from the 25 so its fine especially with the live rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowderBlue Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 +1 on a small cycle, my 40 had one with all the water from a 29, I'm assuming your fling a sump, that's more water volume if so, also it's just much safer to let it do it's thing for a few months to see how it's going to respond to the rock, bio load, etc. But to each their own. I just do it safe, tends to help with headaches down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matteo Posted September 1, 2012 Author Share Posted September 1, 2012 the mini cycle isnt die off though if you make your tank bigger adding exciting water to a new tank with new rock and yes I have a sump with an extra 20lbs or so all thats going to happen is your BB (beneficial bacteria) is going to colonize on the new rock. and that happens only with in weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
