Aquarium Advice Apprentice
Hey Guy's, I think it's about time I decided to make the jump from a sad 2.5 gallon to a 10 gallon. i am a little confused about this cycling process or what I should do next. As you may know, I started a 10 gallon and si far, I have added the substrate have been added. Filtration is by a Aquatech 5-15 with some bio fiber. I still have the 2.5 gallon substrate which is established. I plan to take a little of the gravel and put it in a bag with holes. Now, what can I do to keep the bacteria Ilive. I presume this is the "fishless sycle". What can I do to get the beneficial bacteria into the new substrate and keep it alive for a few weeks. Or what would be the best method to go about this. Right now, its filled and the water is dechlorinated. I a am a novice still and this is my willl be my first real tank. I thank you for your help,
