This is a repost, last one did not have much of a meaning and was too confusing
Ok so my 1 gallon qt/nursery sprung a small leak so I'm getting a new tank (also upgrading it to 2.5 gallon)
Someone told me on a fish forum that I should cycle it with media and that I shouldn't be using substrate for a fry tank.
I have 1 fry in the current 1 gallon that's leaking and he is about 2 and a half weeks old about a centimeter in length
Anyway apparently I don't have any "media" to use from my main tank for my new 2.5 because
A. I can't use substrate
B. I don't have sponges, bio balls, all the other media related things
Also what is a cartridge/filter floss?
