C2 da fish Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 So I recently got a little 10 gallon filled with dry rock trying to make it live rock I had a heater in there but let a friend have it for an emergency so the tank it fairly cold maybe 65 the lowest around there can the tank still cycle I also added dr times bacteria with ammonia doing fish less cycle Quote Link to comment
Slim64684 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I think the bacteria should still reproduce but at a slower speed so it will probably take longer than with warmer water. 1 Quote Link to comment
MrObscura Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Yea, but lower temps will slow the process as mentioned. Granted if your room temp is 65+ it probably won't make much difference. 1 Quote Link to comment
C2 da fish Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 The tank is actually in my garage it prolly get pretty low maybe 60 I’m guessing since it’s winter Quote Link to comment
MrObscura Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I mean, as long as it's not freezing the bacteria will do their thing, but the lower the temp the slower the process. 1 Quote Link to comment
