Hi all,
I appollogize for the post but I need some immediate advice. A friend of mine just gave me a BioCube that has been sitting full of water for about 2 months. No water cycling, lights, etc. It was full of alagae and totally out of control. We emptied it out so I could get it home.
Question: Is there anything biological I can salvage from a tank that has sat neglected so long?
It is sitting in the garage right now with just enough water to cover the sand. Should I try to get the sand, algea covered "live" rocks, and bio balls into a bucket of properly mixed salt water? Should I just clean it all up and start from scratch?
I thought I would post here in the hopes some one could advise me before anything dries out
Thanks!
