Hey everyone! Just want to say a massive thank you to everyone that helped with my cycling issues in my previous thread. Iām on the final stage of my cycle! Just added dose 4 of ammonia and waiting 24 hours to test and see if we are ready to go! I have a question though,
Iām away working from tomorrow for 4 days, my tank cycle should hopefully be done tomorrow. i wonāt be here to do the large water change straight away, or be able to add fish, will the tank need an ammonia feed whilst iām away to keep bacteria active as thereās no fish?
secondly, after the water change, should i clean/replace the filter sponges too? i will also be light vacuuming the gravel on the surface to remove gunk, iām guessing this wonāt disturb too much BB?
thanks for your constant help on here guys much appreciated!
