Hi. Have 2 questions. *twirlysmi
I got a catalog yesterday for our LFS. As I was paging through it I found a new gravel that I would like to have. Right now I have the colored stones that you can more or less get anywhere.*twirlysmi
Its called *SUNSMILE* Torpedo Beach Sand.*SUNSMILE* It says here recommend for FW tanks with external filtration. I can get 50lbs for $21.99. Now here is one of my questions.
Is using sand for gravel good. I read somewhere that sand will up the PH a little.
And here is the other question. I have a 55 gallon FW. How can I change the gravel. I have no other tank set up and I don't want to lose any of my fish that I already have.
I have a 10 & a 20 gallon tank but there is nothing in them, I was actually going to get rid of them at yard sale.
Can I take one of the empty aquariums that I have if I take some of the water out of the 55 and put it in either the 10 or 20 and use the filters that I have on the 55 for filtration right now, or will that kill my bacteria that I need to keep it cycled?
