Hello,
I got a nice tank as a Christmas surprise and it is a 36 gallon bow front. There are currently two mollies in there as hardy fish to start the cycle. The man at the lfs said that it is appropriate for 1 inch per 4 gallons when it is cycling. I am wondering how long it will take to cycle the tank because we would like to see more fish in it soon. Also, the substrate is gravel and how often should I do a water change (for a 10 and 36 gallon).The filter is rated for 50 gallons so I expect to not have to change the filter too often. Anything that will help cycle is good.
