I don't want ANY flack for putting my girls into an uncycled tank. I will have none of it. I have done my homework on the consequences and with bettas I have learned it's not that big of a deal - SO PLEASE don't go off on a tangent about it.
What I want to know is....
I have had my tank up and running with plants in it for 2 days now.
I plan to dump my 4 or 5 girls (depending on how many I find this afternoon) into the tank tonight.
I want some advice on water changing right off the bat.
I have a gravel vacuum, I have the ammonia and otherwise testing kits so I just need a little guidance on how often to test, vacuum and water change. And how much?
I don't care if it takes me a year to get that damn tank cycled - I'll do daily water changes if I need to - but at the point I'm in right now, I kinda didn't have much choice but to do an uncycled tank for the girls.
Thx.
