Qs about cycle tank
Yesterday I put a filthy piece of filter sponge (loaded with bacteria) , from existing tropical tank and put it in a axolotl tank (hasn't fully cycled) plus some a plant from existing tank.
How long will it take for the tank to cycle now I've added the additional bacteria and based on current parameters indicated. Also is it safe to put my axolotl in the tank with these readings whilst waiting for the tank to fully cycled, some say yes others say no and that the tank will take weeks to cycle.
Nitrate 2.0
Ammonia between 0pp - .0.25ppm
Nitrite 0ppm
PH 7.7 - 7.8
Cheers
