Looking good! I know how hard it can be to get over the initial learning hump of keeping fish. I lost a lot of fish before I got the hang of the hobby . Which nitrates?
I think your tank is pretty much full. Especially with the bettas which tend to get aggressive if not given enough space. I would suggest plants. You don't have to get real ones. Silk or soft plastic plants will work just fine. You could also get a cool decoration like a pirate ship or a wood...
I don't understand by cycling an established tank. You have one cycle at the beginning and your cycle can be thrown off and reestablished or restarted if that's what you mean. If you are waiting for your tank to reestablish then you just wait for ammonia and nitrates to be zero. I don't see any...
Sorry guys I can't figure out how to get my photos to upload. I scanned my artwork on my printer and put the scans in google drive but it won't upload as a photo. I'll keep trying to figure it out . Here's the format they're in. I don't think they'll let you open them but you can give it a try.
You could try taking the koi angel out and putting it in quarantine then putting the new angel in the main tank. Move the decor around (if you can) and after the new guy settles in for a couple days you can try reintroducing the koi. Watch them carefully for a day or two and if that doesn't work...
I've always done the process with fish which takes a lot more work and patience so I wouldn't know a specific brand. All I know about fishless cycling is it's exactly like cycling with fish but with liguid ammonia or fish food as the ammonia supply. I don't think fish food works with Stability...
Sounds good to me. Just a little footnote is to make sure you get some ammonia to start the cycle or your water will just sit there with nothing for the bacteria to eat. Good luck starting your tank
I'm definitely no expert. I just started a few months ago and have only done flowers but I'll get some pictures of them soon to show you. I also did a koi painting I'll post soon.
