Yes with all the hard work and daily water changes my 36 gallon is finally cycled. I tested the levels and are as follows 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, 0, nitrates ph 7.0-7.2. Now I just have to decide what type of fish I want to add. I started out doing a fishy cycle since I really was not sure how to do it fishless. I had 8 danios of which one survived and is doing well bleeding heart tetras are doing fine and so are the white clouds but since I have only two of each of these fish I definitely want to add more and some more danios so they can school. Yesterday I tranferred my 2 white skirt tetras into the tank they went from a 5 gallon to the 36 and are so happy to be in their new home must be like an ocean to them compared to the bathtub they started in lol. Platies will be added next once my female decides to give birth. The male and female are in my 5 gallon for now will transfer the male once I see she is closer to birth time and she will be transferred after the birth the fry will stay in the breeder in the 5 gallon. After that decisions decisions to make about what else to add. Just so happy the tank cycled so quickly took about 5 weeks and I know the additions have to be added slowly. Once the tank is stocked with more fish I will post more pics there is one already posted in the gallery if you would like to see it.:clap:
