Whitespot treatment

[dunc]

The tank I have atm is a sort of inbuilt setup with a funny shaped filter system.. basically it wouldn't fit in a new tank

Do you have any good links to pages on fishless cycling? I think I understand the basics but wanna make sure I'm doing everything right.

Just checked my conversion thingy again and aye 215 is just over 55 gallons - must've been looking at non-US gallons, or something.

I like the "ready-made" setups - do you know of any 75 gallon, reasonably well made "ready-made" setups? Like the Aqua One range which come with filter, lighting etc.

I'll leave the WCMMs :thm:

Can you pull the media out? That's the important part to take to the new tank, and even if it doesn't fit 100%, it will still work in a new filter if the water goes through it.

The first is by Chris Cow, the second is sort of a abbreviated version.

Oh, and I really can't recommend a package deal--I've learned that brands and package vary too much across the ocean for anything I'm familiar with to be available. Sorry--maybe someone familiar with products available to you will chime in.

Thanks loads for your help, feeling a bit more confident/knowledgeable now.. n am already on the lookout for a bigger tank :thm:
