I'm cycling one of the tanks I got from Petsmart, it's been going for about 3 weeks and after being gone this morning I came home and noticed that the tank has been leaking. I'm not sure on what to do but this is what I came up with. I was going to clean out my 3 gallon critter keeper, put the rock from my 5 gallon tank in it and also the filter and let the filter keep going until I got back from Petsmart with the other tank. I don't know what happened have always been careful with the tank, it's acrylic/plastic so I'm sure it may just be a lemon, called the fish store and they said bring it in and they'd replace the tank with a new setup. So looks like I'll be able to keep the light, filter and all except for the tank and get a whole brand new setup. It'll be nice to have an extra light and filter around for emergency's or when I find another tank at a yard sale.
IF this is a good idea I'd appreciate your help, don't know anyother way to keep everything in a cycling mode.
