Hey all.
My 30 gallon tank is taking a long time to cycle....going on three weeks now even after dumping several cups of primed gravel from another established tank.
I have a Penguin 200 HOB filter on my established 20 gallon tank, which has two slots in it for filters and stuck in a second filter a few days ago. I plan to put the second filter into my 30 gallon in hopes it may help get the ammonia down.
My question is anyone know how long it would take for the second filter to get a good quantity of bacteria population on it to assist in my 30 gallon?
Thanks
