Ok, I just tore down my 55, placed all my livestock and three pieces of LR in a 10g. I pumped water from the 55 into the 10, and have one of my filters on the 10 as well. I placed all my LR in a large tote and pumped the remainder of the water into the tote. I removes all the sand and placed it in a tote of its own. I moved the 55 to a new location, placed 100 pounds of Yardright in the bottom of the 55, put my old LS on top of the yardright. Then placed a large garbage bag over the sand and pumped the water out of the tote with the LR back into the 55. I then moved the LR into the tank after removing the garbage bag, and topped it off with new water I had prepaired earlier. Looks great with the additional sand, and in its new place.
Now, what do I do now. Should I expect a new cycle period? And if so, how long would it last? If no cycle, I would need to aclimate all my livestock to the 55 right? Anything else I should know or expect?
