Aquarium Advice FINatic
I need a little help. I'm almost at the point of upping a 10gal and a 29gal aquarium. I have:
Holding 1:
1 electric green "cory"
2 false julii
Holding 2:
3 glo danios
( all are schooling and I need to buy more. Ordering 6 and hope to at least end up with 4-5 total julii and electric green. 6 total danios. Probably ordering from liveaquaria.com because they have the electric green "cory". Also, will be adding unknown others after plugging selection and amount into the fish calculator for pH, temp and allowed fish. AqAdvisor - Intelligent Freshwater Tropical Fish Aquarium Stocking Calculator and Aquarium Tank/Filter Advisor )
I will be using Dr. Tim's one & only live denitrifying bacteria and will have plants in the tanks. I will be using his ammonia to kick off the cycle and add fish at 0 ammonia and 0 nitrite, with water change for nitrate.
Here is where I get confused. If I move my false julii and electric green to 29 gal and danio to 10 gal, should/can I add additional ammonia ( dr Tim's brand also) to keep the good bacteria up or do I just redose with the live bacteria when the ordered ones have passed quarantine?
I'm really confused here.
Also, about how long is a safe quarantine?
