So I got my 40 long full of mostly Prime treated tap water, and a couple inches of white gravel (the sand didn't work out). Running a new Aquaclear 70. I have a 10 gallon almost through with a fishless cycle so I took the bio bag for the 70 and hung it in that tank for a couple days and took a couple gallons out of it for the new one.
Added some ammonia and a pinch of flake food. So this is where it begins:
Day 1 stats:
ph 7.5
ammonia 4.0
nitrite 0
Stay tuned.
Edited to add: Oh yeah, 75* F, just turned the heater on.
