Sorry about all the questions but the time has finally come...
I have an extra 15 gal. lying around that was only used as a fresh for about 3 weeks.
I want to use this as my QT. for fish/inverts but due to limited space, do not want to keep it running all the time.
If I run a small HOB filter on the main tank, I should be able to transfer the HOB and media to the QT. and I should be cycled correct?
If so I was planning on waiting to run an HOB until my cycle completes. My thinking is that if I do it right away my bacteria will establish with the HOB as a factor as far as bioload?
And....what is a good HOB for a S/W QT? Bio wheel type like marineland?
Thanks
