I am about 2.5 weeks through the nitrogen cycle of a new26 gallon tank. I rinsed 45 lbs of flourite three times in a 5 gallon bucket (one 15 lb. bag at a time). Boy it is murky stuff. I have added it to the tank.
I assume it would settle down alot faster without running the filter, but I am afraid if I shut down the power filter I might knock out what progress I have made thus far in the nitrogen cycle. Can I turn it off for a day or two without affecting the cycle or just should I just let the filter run? Thanks Betowess
