Aquarium Advice FINatic
So a friend of mine knows a lot of gallery owners and artists. Now they may want me to design aquascapes to show. What do you guys think about selling aquascapes from an art gallery?

Fishkeeper88 said:It's possible but I was thinking just switch out filter media from an old tank to a new tank

There would be fish and possibly invertebrates. So I need to to worry about cycling the tanks.
I'm not sure if this helps but, when plants decay, they jumpstart the cycle. Therefore, if you put the plants in before anything else and leave them in for a week ( if you have that much time) then put the fish in, you should be fine. Youll pass the most dangerous ammonia part and go to the less dangerous nitrite or even nitrate peak.
On a side note, good luck!
