Re: Cycling question
How is your nitrite and nitrate levels? What should happen when cycling a new freshwater tank, and you guys correct me if I'm wrong here, is that initially the ammonia level will begin to rise.

Re: dad's 36 gallon

Remember the day ya'll came to store and were discussing your problems with your tank and I was going over the water changes and importance of them etc. At that time you and Dad where telling me how he does nothing and a...

Too me it sounds like your tank wasn't properly cycled or finished cycling yet and you ...
