I have put filter start in and also added Denitrol to tank, i have used Biotopol in the water before adding the filter sart. filled the tank on saturday added the Biotopol. sunday added the filterstart and Denitrol 20ml.
the tank has a bacterial bloom i think, trolling on the internet there seens to be lots of opinions of what to do and iam geetting a little conserned about it.
the ph reading on sunday was 6.0, will this be ok to as i really want to do a fishless cycle.
sorry if this has been asked before.
