  1. Ok!! So replace the old poly pads from old tank with new poly pads and leave the one that came with the Fluval C3 filter or just take the old poly pad and just leave the pad that came with filter?? 

    Thanks

     

  2. So tested today same as yesterday. For the last couple of days there,s bubbles on top that won't pop. Also i decided to out one piece of the poly pad since i had 2 and see what happen. Here,s a pic of the bubbles. Should i do a 25% water change?? The fishes seem fine.

  3. Thanks so much!! My plan is to get male/female german blue ram and i know to kind of sensitive to add to my  tank. Should i leave bubbler on all-time ?? I read that helps to speed the cycling? 

  4. I have a fluval C3 filter which i add lava rock instead of the carbon in the carbon compartment and added two piece of the SeaPora poly pad from a cycled tank. At this point should i do a 25% water change, since water test yesterday  gave me Ammonia=0.25ppm, Nitrite =0.5ppm and nitrate=5.0ppm ?? And should i remove one or both pieces of polypad from the filter?? Should then test everyday or every 2 days ?? (Cause i want to make sure not to harm the fishes) And lastly so my fish tank will be cycled when ammonia and nitrite results will be at 0ppm for at least 2 days??

    Thank you very much once again!!

  5. Thank you very much for your help. Actually i've done a 30% water on march 7. So i should do a  25% water change  and then when should i test the water??

     So tank will be cycled when no signs of ammonium and nitrite correct!!??

    Also when should i take off the old poly pad, from other tank, that i have actually in my cycling tank?

    Thanks so much

  6. Hi everyone!! Just started a new 29 gallon  tank about week and a half ago which i added, poly filter pad from other tank. Its a planted tank. Today i added 6 monk tetras cause someone was giving them away. Since i read that they are good cycling fish

    I decide to get them. Here's my parameters:
