Hi Im doing a fishless cycle on a 120gallon freshwater setup, I dont have acess to an established aquarium (just moved) so I was wondering about adding some bio-spira to help seed the filters and tank and get the cycle going. Any thoughts.

Never used it myself, but biospira is highly recommended by lots of folks on here and it should really speed the process along. If you can find it, I would definately get some! :thm:

One thing about biospira is that you -must- add the fish or an ammonia source immediately, or the bacteria will be wasted.

You can add the Bio Spira, and add your full fish bio load, or 5ppm of ammoina.
