    stocking new 400 litre - sanity check please

    Hi there, Last weekend I finally started stocking my new 400l tank, it took a few weeks to cycle, I started a much smaller (Quarantine) tank cycling at the same time, both with seed media from my existing 200l, the QT cycled in a matter of days, the 400l cycled the ammonia pretty quickly but...

    think I'm nearly ready for fish

    Hi, So I was on another forum when I started out but it wasn't very active so I thought I'd come here. I have been fishless cycling my fluval 200 with an ex1200 filter with a load of donor media and managed to cycle it in just over a week, the nitrites were gone this morning. This is my first...
