I had to use a fresh filter. But they had the old rocks, plants and decorations in a bag. I used the rocks but purchased new plants and decorations. Is it possible that the old rocks helped speed up the cycle process?

The angel is still doing great! He's going to be a loner for a while until the tank is done cycling. I'm leaning towards staying with my water since reading up more also. My ph has stabilized around 7.5 on its own and other readings still look on target. Planning on doing first water change...

K, I got everything above on the list. I'm also thinking of purchasing water from pet store for water changes and buying a book. So much to learn besides what on Google. Y'all guys have been a big help!

Ok will do, I'll also get ammonia test strip as well. Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it

Thanks for info! It was a nightmare picking up the tank! The last owners drained the water in tank and left the fish in a small bucket full of tap water! Under a hot garage . Only one angel made it . I can't believe some people ugh.

Looking for bright colors along with lots of activity but not wanting to crowd tank either. I was looking at a 2 gallon tank (not bowl) for betta if it can not co excise with new tank mates. We were thinking of doing live plants as well. Not trying to add new fish right away so no rush, doing...

Thanks for the info! Sounds like I have some research to do

I've been wanting rainbow sharks and gourami would they pair ok with them? Also there is a betta currently in the tank along with the Angels. Would it survive with new tank mates or would it be better off in its own small tank?

I am purchasing a 45 tank complete setup with 2 angelfish included. What types of fish can I pair with them?
