bwilly Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 if u add too much. some of your fishes may get killed. do it with caution. it really depends on how big your tank is, how much LR u plan to put in. bigger tank will tend to buffer the LR (uncured) effect, n of course smaller qty of LR. N do remember even though LR is cured, it will still have decomposing bacteria. unless its just transfer directly n immeidately from tank to tank.

oshkosh Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 That's right. Cycle it in a pail so as not to affect your tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
