Hi everyone.
Thanks for the help so far. I have recently started a SW setup and have had a few questions answered already.
I have something that I would like to clear up:
While cycling a tank using fish, a PWC would be beneficial to the livestock by diluting the levels of ammonia and nitrites, I know that PWC's will extend the time taken to cycle the tank, but in the long run, does this dilution also affect the amount of bacteria in the system therefore, by increasing your livestock later, you will see increases in ammonia and nitrite levels until the system can catch up with the correct amount of bacteria?
Am I worrying about this too much?
Thanks
Brett
