Aquarium Advice Freak
So I picked up a new ( to me ) used tank with most of the materials needed to fire it up.
Spent the last few days making sure the tank was clean and leak free, rinsed off all of the gravel for it ( as best possible ) and filled the tank with it and water. ( I did put conditioner in it )
SO...I know that it will need to be cleaned more, as there seems to be a fair amount of residual from the gravel. The media in the filter is pretty well worn so I'm thinking of just getting all new media, but don't see the point until the substrate (?) is clean as I can get it.
ANY advice would be good ( and pretty much the reason I'm here in the first place )
Let me know what I need to tell ya and I'll fill in the blanks. Thanks in advance !!
