Hey all,
Like the title says, how high is too high? I'm at 0.1 ppm (new salifert).
I am taking my time setting up a 65 AGA tank, 6" DSB, 75 pounds of dead/Marco rock. initially added commercially available good bacteria (from the pet store) initially, and old filters from a well established tank atleast a month ago. good flow. no heater (temp 65-70) initially, and just hooked it up. Gonna transfer my fish from an established nano tank to the new one. Now I am thinking its not time yet. thoughts? could the low temp have drastically lenghtened the cycle time? I even started with live sand initially...
thanks for the advice in advance, I'll be watching this closely!
