Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hi I am not totally sure if this is the right place for this topic? If not please move to the appropriate area please admin
My plans are to upgrade my current four footer to my current five footer - let me explain
Four foot in serious need of refurbishment
Five foot in need of upgrading so the answer is simple?
Get a new six footer and upgrade the four foot to the five footer
So the fish in the five footer have been temporally re-homed until the six footer is ready. I have removed as much of the old substrate as possible including the snails! Tomorrow shall put in new plant substrate - I think its JBL mando? Then take out the plants from the shrimp tank and a few shrimps and start aquascaping five footer Then transfer over plants and fish from current four footer then expand from there Simple
A couple of questions - how long will the bacteria in an external filter live without fish in the tank?
Replace all the water or keep as much of the old as possible?
Thanks for reading and yes there shall be photo's
