New Bloke From Gloucester

Evening ladies and gents. New owner of a 125l tank,just starting a fishless cycle. Ive got a yeast co2 system bubbling away to keep the Tenellus plant growing and using an Eheim 2217 filter.

cheers

Nice to see someone researching and preparing before buying fish.
(It will pay off in the long run)

Well done for choosing a fish-less cycle You might want to hold back on that CO2 until the cycle is done, which, incidentally, you can speed up by seeding your filter, and in case you don't know anyone with a mature filter, there are lots of media donors on here

welcome - you've already found out the hard part of any new tank, so congratulations on that and choosing a superb forum!

Really making your own. Very inventive. Will have to have a read up on how to do it.
