Filter Cycling

[hensonc4098]

Hey

After getting advice off of you guys I have put my new Fluval 1plus filter for my new 35l tank in my main community tank which has been set up for several years.

Just wondering how long it has to stay in there as obviously you can't test the water to find out when it's safe to put fish in like you can cycling in a new tank.

Thanks in advance!

1 month will be a safe amount of time to keep it in there to build up a substantial amount of beneficial bacteria.
