there's really no way to speed up a cycle, and it is a very important part of keeping fish. One thing you will learn in time is that in this hobby, patience is a virtue

No it cant you have to be patient unless you seed the tank. Why do you insist on double posting with out using proper spelling and grammar?

You can 'cheat' with some commercial bacteria like Bio-Spira. Instant cycle.
I don't think that you lose anything by skipping cycling other than aggravation. The only kid of cycle I like has two pedals and squeezy horn. Last edited by COM; 07-14-2008 at 05:35 PM. Reason: Capitalization |

agreed. I understand he posts things that we dont normally see here, but he's also not as experienced at all as some of us here. We need to realize that english is not a first language, he's brand new to the hobby, and at least he's trying to understand things, whereas there are some newcomers about his age to the hobby that will go out and buy the "collest" fish they can find and stick them in the cheapest tank they can find. Ever seen a bichir, 3 jack dempseys, 2 plecos, and a pair of goldfish in a 10G tank? There's plenty of them out there. At least he's trying

There is no excuse for the grammar. We have all seen Elvis post with proper, well-formed sentences. He is very capable of writing quite well, and that's an accomplishment for someone who is not a native English speaker. I assure you that I can't write all too well in French or Italian.
People who write or speak with poor grammar, in my opinion, are showing disrespect for themselves and for others with whom they are attempting to communicate. |

if you have another tank or a friend with an established tank you can put the filter in your tank and it will cycle overnight.
& you dont have to post twice in a row. just click the edit button.
