new tank need help

The friendliest place on the web for anyone with an interest in aquariums or fish keeping!
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
this is good, right? All is well and I am ready to populate?
It's better. Don't add any more bioload until the nitrites are at a constant ZERO. Adding more fish may stress the bacteria already there and problems could arise.
As for the algae bloom, keep water changing :roll:
 
OK been doing the water changes and the NO2 is sticking at zero. The snails and plecos are in heaven. All other parameters were normal yesterday, but I will test tonight when I get home.

Let me just say that you guys have been great. You have made my cycling much easier and healthier for the fish (not to mention my sanity). I am now a regular here thanks to you guys.

Now I need to post a thread in the Getting Started forum on what to populate with!

Thanks again, will post if I have difficulties.
 
Before you post, think of what kind of tank you want--peaceful community, semi-aggressive, species tank... Once you've thought about that, post and we can help narrow down the choices!
