later on i would like to change my rocks to another color. would doing so be hazardous to my fish? the tank is newly cycled so i wouldnt do this until i am forsure its stable enough. i have tiny natural colored rocks in there and would like to switch to a black stone type gravel.
also, when do i need to vacum my gravel? what should my cleaning schedual be now that i am cycled?
 
If your tank is newly cycled you might want to wait a couple more weeks before changing the substrate out IMO. Also definately follow the half now and half later move as instructed in that article DT recommended.
