Ok.

I pulled all lr out and attempted to syphon as many as I could.( about 10)

leveled sandbed.

rearranged lr ( more room once again)

added 4 drops of FWE

turned flow up as much as possible.

using turkey baster to stir up any little stragglers

only on large scale lol

 

 

ok tested water params first time since 3/5/10

 

Temp - 77.2

Specific Gravity - 1.025

Ammonia - 0

Nitrite - 0

Nitrate - 0

 

I have seen no diatoms on sand or rock.

I wondered if I would have a noticeable cycle at all, got my rock from lfs and had it in the tank within 45 mins.

getting anxious for livestock.

reminded me of how great such a small tank looks!

But you're GONNA have a diatom bloom lol. I thought that I would avoid one too since nothing showed up during cycling. once all params finally reached 0, over the next few days I got hit with brown diatoms badly... to this day idk why :(
