After I do a water change, do I need to cycle the new water that are about to be added to the tank?
When I clean the tank with the gravel vacuum, I know that the water flowing out constantly while I’m sticking the tube in and out of the gravel but I couldn’t cover the whole area yet and the amount of water coming out through the tube have reached more than 25%. Am I moving too slow?
I have my betta at my work place, where it’s always cold. I only have one heater in the tank. How can I make the new water (replacement of the old 25% water) the same temperature when the room is always so cold? Should I buy another heater? The smallest heater I found are for 2-5 gallon tank but the amount of the new water is only 25% of the water change.
Last question about the water treatment and the salt. In the directions behind the box/bottle, it usually tell us to put a certain amount of their product to every certain gallons of water. Do you really measure the amount of new water so you can add the right amount of the salt and water treatment? Also, should I just dump the new water to the tank or use the gravel vacuum again?
