Aquarium Advice Regular
Hi, about a fortnight ago I PTS my betta after it was sufferring from dropsy I'm thinking of stocking the tank up again, however, I was told I should disinfect (ie bleach) it before re-stocking it. Although I've read thru posts concerning bleaching, includ what parts to what water/bleach, wondering if some1 can clear up some qn I have.
1. In my tank there is a sponge filter, resin driftwood, java fern x 2, java moss, a heater, a big rock, and gravel. I was thinking of just mixing the bleach directly into the still-filled up aquarium (even the air pump is still running for the sponge atm). However, what would I need to take out? I'm thinking the filter, but I'm unsure about the resin and live plants?
2. Also, for the items I would have to remove, how would I go around disinfecting them?
Thanks!!!
