Get some dry Marco Rock from JL and dump bacteria in and wait a few weeks for the cycle to complete then you know you have a clean tank inside

yeah i do feel that would be more safe. But time is kind of limiting me from it haha.

I'll help you.

Send me a PM, lets discuss what you plan on doing. This can be a scary hobby to enter, i can help you take some of that fear away.

A bit of detritus added to your aquarium would help seed it.

There's lots of misleading info out there. I've made a lot of the newbie mistakes. I'd be happy to help you avoid them.

Cheers-MM
