07/06-2011
purchased fluval roma 125 on ebay with stand for £87
10/06/2011
collected the tank and was stored in my garage until was prepared to begin its setup
25/06/2011
purchased the black gravel which we agreed on for the substrate from P@H
26/06/2011
purchased fluval 3+ from P@H although it was expensive as we were excited to start the cycle
added 6.5ml of ammonia to get the level up to 5ppm
i also included some seeded media from my other tank to speed up the cycle, checked reading after 12h and ammonia was at 2ppm so looking good i must say, will check again tomorrow and also take a reading for nitrates/nitrites tomorrow after 24h
