MY QUESTION, HOW LONG SHOULD I SEED MY FILTER MEDIA?
Hello.
I have 3 tanks.
My 10 gallon cycled,
36 gallon cycled,
10 gallon cycling.
I had a 5 gallon cycled. I bought the 10 gallon on Sunday. I set it up and added my betta and filter. It's heavily planted with hornworts.
My 5 gallon filter is the tetra whisper, internal filter for 3 gallons.
My new filter is aqueon Quietflow 10. For up to 20 gallons.
I allowed the filters to run beside each other for a few hours, before I moved the old filters media into the new media.
Ammonia: 0.25ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 0ppm
Earlier today I bought API quick start, I double dosed and added It to the tank.
Ammonia: 0.15ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 0ppm
The ammonia is going downl but nothing is rising.
I just moved the filter pad from the 10 gallon to the 36 gallon to try to seed it, hoe long should I leave it in the main tank?
