Hi everyone, glad to be a part of the crew.
I started out looking for a fighting fish and ended walking out of the local FS with a 30L tropical starter kit 18 months ago,Awesome decision. out took a while to cycle and some hard work due to not being patient and adding a couple guppys. Turns out it payed off, haven't had water quality or clarity issues yet.
Finally I have just set up my new 55 gallon tank and can't wait for the cycle to begin.
It's been 3 days water was De chlorinated 24hrs before I added 2 Hardy fish to get it.going. Seeded the tank by squeezing my established filter sponge near the filter inlet.
PH = 6.8 steady
Still no ammonia yet. Hopefully this cycle won't for ever due to the tank size.
photo is on my profile album.
do the bubbles help?
