Alright, so I got a tank a while back (fall semester) and avoiding a long recap got a pleco and managed to keep it alive for about a month. When Lee died I kind of wondered what a fish skeleton of that size would look like so ya. I left it in there. To rot.
Now the skeleton is clean and I want to start the tank over again. I need help- I want to do it right this time.
I have a filter but was afraid to start up it (something about dead fish remains getting in it). Do I completely change the water or what? Scrub the tank clean? Or are there now bacteria in it that I should keep?
Thanks.
