Hi All,
So the ballast on my 24's lighting blew, I was originally going to set up an additional 40gal, but now I'm thinking of shutting down the 24 and transferring all efforts to the 40.
What is a smart protocol in upgrading?
This is what I'm thinking, please give me feedback/suggestions
1) Cycle my the with 50% of the rock and sand (the transfer from the 24 will be the other 50%)
2) Then simply transfer the rock, sand, and livestock over?
What should I do to transferring the sand? It is a about 2" deep, should I stir it up and siphon off the debris water or should I just transfer it all over and try to keep it as undisturbed as possible?
Thanks,
Josh
