Lol sorry, I think I made it more confusing, I'm mrt555's girlfriend, he didn't change his name
Our 10 gallon tanks filter is finally cycled, its been eating through 4ppm ammonia daily and have had zero nitrites for two or three days now...
Wish it would have been cycled when we got the plecos so we could have quarantined them!
So now the question is what to do with it?
I want cory cats, but until now wasn't sure if they would be ok with our substrate (black blasting sand) but the loaches don't seem to have any issue with their barbells...
If I did get them this week they would obviously be quarantined until we were sure they weren't sick, and we were sure the main tank was fully cured..
Or should I wait to get them until after the main tank is cured of all its problems in case we would need to treat a few of the fish with something stronger that the fry, shrimp, or loaches won't tolerate?
