Hi All,
Just in the process of cycling my new 40G.
i put one zebra danio in last night (from my 10G community tank) and thought of an alternative way or getting the bacteria up without poisoning and torturing my poor fishies.
instead of leaving him in the new tank for 2/3 weeks is there any reason why i can't swap the fish in the new tank with one of the others in the old tank every day.
i have 7 zebra danio's in total so if i can keep track of which ones have been in which tank in theory i can swap the cycling fish every 24hrs so as not to cause too much stress.
is there any reason against doing this, i can't bear to leave one fish in crappy water for so long?
