    I think I broke my cycle! (10g fishpless planted cycle)

    I went to ACE and they had none. :( I did get my paws on a handful of established media and gravel, so I'll keep looking today for that ammonia.

    I think I broke my cycle! (10g fishpless planted cycle)

    Good news: I got a handful of gravel and some water from an established tank. I did a large water change and added some seachem stability today. I couldn't believe I had 0 ammonia and buckets of nitrite, so I wanted to knock out the nitrite because holy noodles batman, those were some obscene...

    I think I broke my cycle! (10g fishpless planted cycle)

    Thanks. I've been tossing fish food in there since I've had no luck getting pure ammonia. >< I've had ammonia for about a week then today it disappeared. I was just worried. I guess I could add a few of the CPDs (I was going to buy ~6-7 CPDs and ~5-6 dwarf cories (corydoras habrosus) or just...

    I think I broke my cycle! (10g fishpless planted cycle)

    Hello there! I've been fishless cycling and dosing with SeaChem Stability into a planted tank. I had to do a partial (~2 gallons) water change to add some plants because some of them arrived late (And I still want to pick up a couple more. Giant bald spot is BAD!). I made sure to add some...

    10 gallon stocking questions.

    No worries, thank you for mentioning it. It's hard to pick a filter it is. I'm also going to admit I'm horribly indecisive when it comes to choosing my fish (I can't love and feed and look after all of them!? What's up with that? Look at those betta faces and ooh, tetras~ But I have to keep that...

    10 gallon stocking questions.

    I'm working on it! I tested my tap water. If it got any harder, rocks would shoot out of my faucet. I haven't filled it up yet because the stand was missing several panels (ARGH AMERIWOOD. So many angry faces! And it turned my hands BLACK from touching it! Don't even get me started on some of...

    10 gallon stocking questions.

    Yeah, I bought the API test kit long before I got my aquarium substrate in. >< I invested in eco complete substrate. Dr. Foster's is keen. If I get 6 CPDs, would they be happy and not shy in a planted tank? I hate to scare my poor critters.

    10 gallon stocking questions.

    This moves quickly. ^^; 1) It's a planted tank with plants from a reliable breeder. 2) I am adding seachem daily. 3) My seed source of ammonia is some fish food/a frozen fish food cube. I may ask around about some seeded media but I don't know many folks in my area.

    10 gallon stocking questions.

    Whoo! Thanks. Um. If I went with the Celestial Danios and the dwarf cories, how many of each could I get? Or if I got a dwarf gourami, would it be him and catfish or could I put some other fellows in? I have an idea on what fits I think, but I am curious about how many exactly so I don't...

    10 gallon stocking questions.

    While I wait for my tank to cycle (I'm giving it at least a week, although I am using seachem stability), I was wondering what I could stock in there? For the record, it is a planted tank. I like Celestial Pearl Danios and found someone that sells Corydoras habrosus (sic). I definitely like...
