Well it is official. I bought the 125 gal tank. Now because it is used, what cleaning should I do to the tank? The current owners still have discus in it and they all seem very healthy, no visible signs of illness. But regardless I want to provide a clean home for the fish once the cycle is done.
On another note, they are giving me a dozen or so electric yellow cichlids that are about 1 1/2 months and 3 months old. Any special food/care things to be careful of? Also I have to set up a tank ASAP. Will they be ok through a cycle if I keep on top of water changes or should I put them in one of my other tanks temporarily while I cycle a 10 gal for now. Tank profiles in my sig.
Thanks in advance.
One last question although I am sure I know the answer. Clown loaches can not be kept in an african cichlid tank, correct? The cichlids will attack them right?
