    Nightmare Start To New Tank

    Thanks for the reply. I've been continuing with adding a little food each day and testing. currently Ammonia is showing small levels (0.25) nitrite is 0 and nitrate is 10-15 and rising slowly. I put the temp up to get the cycle going and get rid of white spot so I think I'll do the big water...

    Little update. I'm feeding the tank with a little food twice a day as suggested and I'm testing. Yesterday ammonia was 0 nitrite was trace and nitrate 10-20 so am doing a water change today and will keep monitoring.

    Nightmare Start To New Tank

    Yep I have been floating the bag, adding small amounts of water every 20 mins or so until there is as much if not more tank water than shop water in the bag.

    Nightmare Start To New Tank

    When I set the tank up I ran the filter from my old tank alongside the new filter for a week. Everything since would indicate that this did the trick. Ammonia has remained 0 as has nitrite and nitrate slowly rises.

    Nightmare Start To New Tank

    We had some zebra Danios (sort of my little girls but I looked after them) that lived happily in a 17 ltr cold tank for 4 years. Decided to get a slightly bigger tank for them so bought an Aqua-start 320T which holds 36 ltrs. Got talked into adding a heater. Set-up new tank, with new and old...
