I'm not quite sure how to go about cycling my 55 gal tank. My plans are to eventually have both plants and fish in the tank. Should I put some plants in during the cycling stage? Will this help it along? I'd also like to use Tiger Barbs to cycle the tank. In a 55 gal, how many would I need? I'd hate to invest a whole lot of money in fish only to have many of them die during the cycle. I've read about the fishless cycle and am still considering that but I would really prefer to do it the old fashioned way!
So, help me out!!! How would you cycle my 55 gal tank?
TIA!!!
