Replacing stuff in my ten gal.

[freeking903]

I have a 10 gal tank and i was going to replace/clean it. I have bought new gravel and some more plants. My question is should I let it cycle again because im going to change the water and all that?

As long as you keep the filter and media you should be fine. You'll lose some bacteria from changing the gravel, but should be offset by the addition of more plants.

make sure to clean the filter in old tank water so you dont kill off the bacteria. you might have a mini cycle. just keep testing the water for a week or so after your done.
