Finally got this setup cycling. Went with a gallon of starter bacterial culture. Already chewing through ammonia like a champ.
Hit the send button too fast...
What kind(s) do you have in QT?
One convict, one yellow lab, and one blue and orange peacock. The orange peacock might not be mine but the lfs says the woman who called dibs on him can't handle him and has a mixed 29 gallon which sounds like a disaster. So I'll likely end up with him
29G seems like too small of a tank. I haven't been around the serious Cichlids but have seen some pretty amazing looking tanks of the fish before.
Will be interesting to see what comes of it. You have lots of room.
Sounds like a sound argument. There should be more of those fish at the lfs's over time though if it doesn't go your way. But it should!
