Hi

Ive had my tank about 2 weeks, I put some cycle in it and some waste from another filter.
So how far along the 2 month normal cycle does that take it.
All the way, or just part?

You have to have an ammonia source to keep the ammonia alive and growing.* Are you cycling with fish or ammonia?* Or is the "waste" you speak of your ammonia source?* Cycling usually takes about a month or so.

Hi

I am cycling with fish.
I just have a small 20lt tank and a new 70 lt tank.
My old all in one 20lt tank is not working properly, its wheel filter did not work so it had a internal filter. This filter could just be transfered to the new tank along with the fish, I only have 6 small fish intotal. 3 in each tank at the moment.
I also have a new filter which came with the new tank.
I have ordered a amonia test kit, may get it tomorrow.
I allready have the 5-1 test strips.
The plants seem to be going, are these affected by the "cycle"
