Ok so I just moved 2 hours sunday, to college, and I brought my 10g and 29g (empty) gallon tanks. So my first question is when I moved the 10g I kept only the gravel and plants in the water from the tank so my driftwood and other decorations semi-dried out. So I thought they I might have to mini-cycle the ten gallon tank but I just checked the chemistry and it was NH3/NH4-0ppm, No2-0ppm, No3- 5ppm. The cycle must be complete right? I wasn't expecting it to be so quick.
The second is my 10g is massively over stocked and I want to start cycling the 29g so I can transferring my fish/inverts. Is it safe to go ahead and seed the 29g now with the old filter, old gravel, plant, etc. while moving the shoal of tetras? Should I wait till the fish calm down more?
P.S. I plan to move the Tetras, plecos(after the cycle), and crayfish(after the cycle) to the 29g. Does that sound ok? Thanks!
