Hi, i have decided to empty my tank and start over due to the ammonia levels in my tank being off the charts and killing all my fish . So my next question is do I empty the whole tank and clean my gravel,plants and filter?? Or can I just empty half of the water? I had goldfish in there, they apparently carry yucky diseases 8O . So i am not sure? I have a master test kit and i have ammo lock, ph decreaser& increaser, water conditioner and this stuff called cycle. Does the cycle stuff help? Anyway I am really considering the fishless cycle but i have only read an article on how to do it in saltwater and not fresh water? If anyone knows where I can find a good article on how to do this fishless cycle please send it my way. As well as let me know if i should drain the whole tank? Do I wash my stiff in just hot water or boiling water? thanks
