not a fishless cycle
OK... I am sure some of you saw my DISASTER in the Unhealthy fish section.
I need some advice on cycling my tank...
I am trying to get a guy at work to an extra filter pad to his tank for a week or so so I can put it in with MY filter in my tank next week. Here is my delema.
I have a 20G tank... with an young otto (not quite 2") and a fully grown Zebra Daino (2-2.5") Is that enough to start a cycle or should I purchas 2-3 more Zebra's? I don't really want to do a cycle wiht fish but I have noone to take the fish for me as his fish will eat mine. I am not sure if I can get ahold of him since he is on vacation.
My worry is that my 2 little fish will not produce enough ammonia to get the cycle going...
