Wheee Tank Cycling

[BeccaBlain]

*sniff* my tanks cycling. Now, I just have to wait for the slightly cloudy water to resolve itself.. *pout*

Poor Moe and Pearl won't be very photographable until then, I guess. Unless I snag them at the proper moment. I'm considering getting a second divider so I can run the filter 24/7... but eh... Poor pearl is just going to cope while I let the filter clean out his tank before I feed them their breakfast.

They are so blessidly adorable.

Due to long-time since cycling a tank, how long does the initial cloudiness take to go away? I remember cloudiness from when I originally cycled tanks, but not how long it lasted for

Yeah, that seems right with what I remember

My fishies look so adorably happy Hey are flaring, and darting about and looking so pretty.

I think I'm having far too much fun with this tank.

I am surprised that Betta males really do establish a heiarchy of "who is boss". Moe flares whenever Pearl comes around, and Pearl goes into submissive mode. I think Pearl knows Moe's a bigger, more mature fishie. Its so much fun to watch.

Now all I have to worry about is keeping the water levels low enough so Moe doesn't jump the divider trying to get at Pearl. *laugh*

Thanks for the input on clearing times
