Hello all!
So as the thread title says, Iām doing the big switch... but you need a minute of background...
4 days ago I really got sick of my plastic plants and took them out Since then Iāve been doing daily water changes cuz I caused a nitrate thing. Itās all because I hadnāt been cleaning deep down into the gravel, Iām sure. When I pulled the plastic plants out, I put in some nice rocks.
So hereās my question; how long should I wait to do the switch? I took out a lot of bb space with the plastic, how long should it take to get the bb onto the rocks now? I donāt want to do the switch until I have enough bb āon topā so there wonāt be a crash.
Iām open to all ideas...THANKS!
PS - Thanks to you all, this process is from ātank envyā when I see pics of your gorgeous tanks! Iāll get there, and thank you for making me want to do better!
