Hi all,
I want to restart my freshwater tank. Nothing bad actually happening at the moment, but I’m a bit bored with the current setup. One question though:
Can I bypass the cycling by reusing 75% of the existing water, using the uncleaned medium and filter? I do not have a cycled second tank to house the fish, so I’m a bit in the dark how to do it fast but correctly without losing fish in the process.
If this is an absolute no-go, what would be the safest way to do it?
Thank you!
