TheSaltwaterGuy's 10 Gallon build (pics added)

Haha. I already did. I'm excited. :

 

So right now im doing a water change... well i need ro/di water first so yeah just gonna take out like 2 gallons and put 2 gallons back in

 

Why? let the tank do its thing.

 

i went 4 months without doing one, i had 3 fish, cuc and i had no problem. WC are misunderstood IMO in this hobby.

 

that's a pretty extreme statement!

 

How do you figure? i said misunderstood, not unnecessary.

 

dude i have .50 ammonia and .25 nitrite and theres a maroon clown in there...

 

you also implied that 4 months in between water changes is fine with out saying anything else about it in the same statement. I know it can be done, but it's pretty extreme

 

He'll be fine, my YT Damsel went through, at the peak of my cycle, Ammonia at 1.8 ppm and Nitrite at 5, yes 5 not .5 ppm and hes doing fine. If you were concerned for your fish, you coulda cycled without one, but that's a whole other argument. just chiming in my input, take it or leave it. but i'm not gonna get into a little arguement via a forum. Best of luck.

 

well i wouldnt have cycled with fish but i had them in my biocube and had to move them somewhere so i had to put it in the tank
