here are the stats:
10 gallon set up yesterday
5 small fish (platy babies I think?)
Filter 150 B Penguin Marineland With 1 well worn (1 month+ old) Filter pad
Subst: Sand + plastic plants
I had 2 mature filter pads sitting in my main tank filter a Aquaclear 70, plus my usaul media in there. Set my new tank (10 gal) up after having to sanitize and air dry for a week. I set up the tank yesterday with fish, and then this morning took one of the pads from AC to the Penguin. I know how to do Fishless cycle and Cycle with no Mature media. So Now what to do? I have API test kit.
