I'm in the process of moving. I have a 120 gallon tank at the old house and a brand new 75 gallon tank just filled with water yesterday at the new house. I have plants arriving for the new tank on Friday. The fish will be moved to the new tank in about ten days.
Can I completely avoid cycling the new tank by using water and gravel from my old tank in the new one, or will this just speed up the cycle? In either case, when should I add these items - as soon as possible, when I put in the plants or at the same time that the fish are added? :?
