This is an upgrade so the fish would be moving over as well. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Here is a pic of the setup so far: First stand they had was scratched up on the side. We didn't catch it till we got home so we wasted another 2 hours to get it exchanged. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Yea I was looking at either Fluval or Eheim. From reading past threads and other forums, Eheim seems to have more problems. I went ahead and ordered a Fluval 406 on Amazon. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Did you use any "bacteria in a bottle" products such as Seachem Stability? It's supposed to speed up a cycle. I got nitrites within a week using that.

Like title says, how can I cycle my new 75G tank with media from my 29G tank? Will it be an instant cycle? Can I swap out fish right away? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Can anyone comment on Fluval canister filters? Sent from my iPad using Aquarium Advice

Now that I have the tank and stand figured out, need to pick out a filter and heater. Any ideas, anyone? I know I definitely need to go the canister route. As for heater, should I run one 300w or 2 lower power ones? Sent from my iPad using Aquarium Advice

So you have this Aqueon ensemble? Well for now the wife is ok with buying this, for now. We're supposed to go and pick it up tomorrow. She's scouring craigslist for a better deal lol. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I know about Haps, I have two of the Nyererei in my 29G right now. There are others, like Kribensis. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I'm looking at either mbuna, discus or a few schools of community fish in the 5-6" in range. Ignore the fact that this thread is in the planted tank sub-forum, I've requested to have it moved to "Getting Started". I know mbuna don't do well with plants lol. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium...

What are the dimensions of that? I wanted a 60 or 75 so maybe I could stock discus Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice
