QT Question - Bacteria

tfrechette · 09/10/2013, 07:48 PM

I've set up a QT. Put the bio wheel from the HOB QT filter in my DT sump for 2 weeks along with ceramic rings.

Plan to get fish as soon as I see what I'm looking for on DD. But I set up the QT with the bio wheel and the rings in the filter.

There should be bacteria growing on the wheel and rings.

Do I need to ghost feed until I add fish to the QT?

Thanks.

I'm no expert but its probably a good idea to add a tiny bit of food to be safe ..
