I have been operating a 20 gallon with goldfish for 3 years now. I jsut got a new 75 for christmas. How should I make he transition smooth from the 20 to 75...
If I put all Gravel, filter media, decor and live plants into the new tank, do I need to worry about a tough cycle? I was thinking if I put all the old stuff in it should be a quick and easy cycle...of course the tank sizes are so different...any opinions??
The whole fishless cycle seems like a really huge undertaking considering I've got all this bacteria soaked gravel and media on the other hand I don't want to hurt my fish. the goldie I've had longest (3 years)seems permanantly stunted from cycling the original tank...something I did prior to having any knowledge of fishless cycling
