Hi All! New here because I have a Question I can't find an answer to... I have a pump driven UGF that sits in the middle of a 5 gallon. Heavily planted and doing well. I have Contasoil in one and gravel in the other. I keep CPDs and Cherry Shrimp.
I want to turn off and remove the UGF pump and leave the bottom plate and replace with a small HOB or internal filter.
Will this kill my gravel bacteria? Cause an ammonia spike? Is there a safe/safer way to do this? Thanks All!
