Fish Fanatic
Am I nearly there yet with these readings?
Ammonia - between the 1.2 and the 1.8 colour bands
Nitrit - 0.2
Nitrate - 8
(done before a 20% water change with a liquid nutrifin tester kit.)
Also another separate cycling question...this may be naive...(and I'm not doing it yet)...but...
If a small tank has cycled, and you want to put the fish in a bigger tank, can you take out the old gravel, filter etc and put them into the new tank? And then would the new tank be immeadiately cycled because the right bacteria were there in the filter and the gravel?... or has that only cycled the smaller amount of water, and therefore would you have to cycle the new tank separately first because it has more in?
Does that make sense?
