help quick anyone?

i just changed my gravel and i have an emperor biowheel 400, the one that has 2 biowheels.

i forgot to keep my old gravel soaked, because my initial thoguht was to put it into some type of stocking and place it in the gravel to help build the good bacteria, however it has been dry for many hours.

im guessing the good bacteria on the gravel is dead alraedy, but i still have my biowheels.

would they be enough so i dont need to cycle my tank again?

also i have the filter floss, frmo my filter that has been still wet, so that could also help im guessing

Yes, the tank is still good. Dont worry about cycling again

Cheers.

I left my penguin dry for hours and hours one day, and when I put it back in, none of the levels changed (nothing else in the tank to hold bacteria at that point, it was bare) None of the levels have changed since!

yeah, i was really gettign worried that i left all my gravel dry, and then i remember the bio-wheels so that was a relief, and i left those soaking by the weight of a bunch of plants that were thrown in my bucket.

sounds like you'll be fine but you might keep an eye on your water params and do a partial waterchange if anything spikes.
