Well let me start by I just got done cycling my 30 gal. I received it from a a friend and it was all going good. Levels were all good Put my Oscars in with my convict monday night and everything was great. Did a Partial Water Change this morning. After a week of steady readings.
So I finally sat down to relax and watch some Pre Super bowl coverage...
I glance at my Tank and what do I see...Water SEEPING from the corner...I'm freaking out not today....Well I have had my fill of Used stuff. I told my wife off to Petsmart keep toweling the Floor and got a 60 Gallon Marineland Stand and Hood. I transferred everything Plants, Rocks, Substrate I'm using the same Filtered, ( I was way over Filtered using a Penguin Emp 400and a Top fin 30 ) I had to do this in a rush so looking for advice.
I am using the Same Filters...well Used.
Transfer 90 percent of the existing Water
almost all the Same Substrate...
Bought a Bottle of Safe Start by Tetra..put in plus plenty of water conditioner.
All the levels are 0.0 when I first tested since most of it is Freshwater going from 30 to 60 gallon.
Also will my 150watt Heater handle this ? Or need more?
Fish are active look healthy....
Anything I missed..sorry for the ton of questions but I did not have time to search and this is my First serious leak.
