Hello,
A stupid question, one of the posting mentions the use of shrimp to get the cycling process started. Its that raw or cooked shrimp???
One more thing, is there a way to speed the cycling process a bit, shorten the time it takes til its ready for fish??? I have a gone bad 10 gal tank and I need to move my fish from there before they get kill by ammonia.
The tank got scrub down because snail take over. I responded with firm and brutal action
I have a new 29 gal for my friends to move into, but needs to be setup and cycled...any suggestion???? ideas???? 8O shortcuts???!
One last thing if I may, the AP kits I see mention on the posting here, who manufactures it and how does it look like??? Where could I get one, all I have are the 5 in 1 test strips for Ph, Alkalinity, hardness and nitrate nitrite, but hear that are not that good?? I have a two liquid ammonia test kit, and a strip ammonia test too, but find the reagent more accurate!.
Please give me ideas, suggestion and or repremends will all be taken in!!!
Thank you all!!
