starting up a tank part 2, sorry more questions?
i posted earlier today about my "new" tank.
I took the plants out, scrubbed the sides (which came clean with no chemicals) added the water and the water conditioner.
it weighed too much for me to dump, so i added to the 3 inches of water (and rocks) but stirred up a lot of dirt junk. i turned the filter on. will that filter out the dirt? can i stir the rocks before i put things in it to get all the dirt out? thanks in advance.
im also looking through several disorganized book stacks trying to find our fish for dummies book.
thanks for the help! also, any advice i need to know about tanks in general? i know about picking out fishies and checking their compatabilities, but the tank itself anything i should know before i get over excited?
thanks!
The filter should be able to get most of the dirt out as long as it is a good one and the right size for the tank. You may have to clean the filter out and then let it run again before adding fish. You can stir up the rocks to get the tank cleaner but def wait until the water clears up before adding anything live. This may take a day or two. If you have access to established water, stir up the rocks, drain some of the water and add the established water.
