Seeding a new tank.

Its amazing how fast a tank will cycle when you fill it with treated water and let it run without a filter cart. installed for 2 weeks. Then seed it with a filter cart. and a few plants from my est. 29g. I fed the tank with pure ammonia and it cycled in 2.5 days. I added one more healthy dose of ammonia to double check it would process it. It did, in less than 10 hours. AMAZING!

Yeah I found a gallon of ammonia at ACE hardware. Well I already did my shifting. I Shifted my "Big Fish" to the 46G from the 29G. The Oscar, JD, and bala have the 46G all to them selves. That gave me room in my 29G. All that is in the 29 is 3 tiger barbs and a pleco. I think I am going to get rid of the pleco and get 3 corys and 2 otos and a pair of GBR's. Although thats not set in stone.
