i currently got a 30 gallon tall tank and i have a catfish not sure what kinda hes about 5 inches long and 3 black skirt tetras in a 10 gallon adn i need to get them into teh 30 gallon before it really gets cold i need to clean the tank and i also got a betta in a tak that i want to put in the 30 gallon to adn i was hopin someone cold help me. is this to many fish to put in the tank befor it is cycled. im nto sure that i will have the time to do it but i just wanna have someone elces suggestions thanks
 
Well... the fastest way to do it without biospira is to move the filter that you have currebtly running on the 10 over to the 30 and let that run along with the new filter you have for the 30. Over time the bacteria you want will establish on the new filter.
That shouldn't, imo, be too much fish for the 30 depending on what type of catfish you have.
You mention before it gets too cold? No heater in either of the tanks?
 
im not scared the catfish wil eat the batta cause the betta is way to be for him to eat but we have a heater in the 10 gallon and it went out and the catfish is to big for the 10 gallon. he can put his tail agents the back and his wiscres will go about half way up the front of the tank. hes just to big for the tank and i wanna tey and get all the fish togeather befor it gets to cold we are putting everythang in teh 30 gallon and im working on getting a heater for that now i will probily have that in the next week when i get my money but thanks for the filter info
 
Hey Rich, welcome to AC!

What kind of fish are you keeping again? And is it a planted tank?

:confused: Help i am new..... is there such a thing as too many bubbles in a 29 galon tank.. fresh water community ?????? :dance

Well, you could possibly have too much current. You don't actually need bubbles if you have a power filter or somesuch going to circulate the water, but bubbles are a good way to set up a bit of current in the tank.
