Hey Guys.
It's been five days now since I started my 150 Gal tank
I'm cycling it with some feeder fish and a few yabbies in there for interest - hopefully they will kick the cycle along aswell!
How long is it typically before I see some Nitrites in my readings?
Also I am running a canister filter which has a couple of different foam inserts, bio balls and what I think is ceramic pieces...? They are hollowed out cylinders...? My water isn't getting crystal clear so I was going to ask what kind of media I should get to help it along? Activated Carbon?
I've also been thinking I might get my old aqua clear 500 out and run that on it aswell... just a thought.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Adam
