Thanks guys! Do you know how I can request it to become a sticky?

 

[Bettababe1011]

I agree it needs to be a sticky, just don't know how...

I've got a couple quick edits to make...like where I skipped a number...but maybe I can PM a mod and ask how to go about it. I also have a request in to be approved to add it to the articles section.

Make a note that you didn't want people to mess up there cycle, so you skipped the unlucky number.

PM Melosu58 and find out the procedure.

Thanks Mr. Limpet! He actually PM'd me earlier today and asked if I had considered submitting this as an article. I'll clean it up a little more tonight (you never see your typos until you click send, lol), and I'll shoot him one tomorrow to see if he thinks it's worthy of being a sticky. There's some great articles out there on how to cycle, I just wanted to try to cover the questions that arise while you're actually going through it.

Sweet! I just got approved to be an author in the articles section. I'll hopefully get it submitted tomorrow and have it up soon. There's definitely a ton of things in this hobby I have yet to learn, but hopefully with everyone's help this article can save the lives of a few fish out there, thanks!

Deckape, you've been my best teammate / research partner / bodyguard along the way, lol. Hopefully through all the time and effort we've put into learning about this great hobby...we can convince a few people to read these threads and save a couple fish.

 

[Bettababe1011]

Hey, am I chopped liver? Lol.

I'm all for helping a few fish. Like I said I'll refer anyone with questions to this article.

Plus, my fingers have stopped cramping up already, haha.

 

[Bettababe1011]

Good to hear. Lol.

Everyone is appreciated, lol. I've just driven Deckape mad with the 10,000 PM's I send him every day getting him to help me out.

I've probably caused him to have to empty his PM box 5 times by now.

For the fish, not with them!

 

[Bettababe1011]

Haha. I've only had to empty mine once, and I thought that was a lot! Jeez!

7 times, but the product was spot on
