Cycling My Tank

[JohnRossDele]

Hi all, i had gone of track with cycling my 100litre tank, now im starting it again. How long approx would it tank for my tank to cycle if i:
added squeezed media from a filter sponge in my 240litre tank, added nutrafin cycle and ammonia
fisless cycling

thanks

It would be a little quicker if you actually take a piece of mature filter media from your filter in your 240 liter and place it into your filter on your 100 liter.

Nutrafin cycle is worthless and will not speed up your cycle.

Just follow the steps on the "add & wait" method.

On average, under a good environment, which is a pH of 8.4 and a temp of 84F/29C, a fishless cycle will take about 4-6 weeks. It is not uncommon for it to take longer.
