Oh no - no fish in there yet - I might be a viking but the cruelty gene has been dormant for a few generations now
Luckily there's no leaks, I was worried about that must admit! But it was a good deal.. I paid £450 for the lot.
I've also seen the weirdest toughest algaes imagine in documentaries, ones that live only a few feet from sulphur spewing 300C hot volcanos! Life finds a way, as they said in a more commecially aimed movie
I'm a bit reluctant to start the UV-filter before the filter gets a chanse to start a bacterial colony, but maybe I should worry about the green water first? This is too weird, I've heard a lot of people having trouble with green water, but never experienced it myself. Then 24 hour after filling a tank - whammo LOL
Tell me one more time how I should go about this - algae gone first - then bacterial colony in the filter - or the other way around?
Guess this is one of those things you get when buying secondhand
