I have a 29 gallon that was being used as a QT. It had been empty for a few days when the heater broke. I've just now replaced it (a few weeks later), so the temperature has been up and down between 55 and 72 for time. I have been feeding the tank a bit to keep the cycle up. My question is does anyone know if the cold temp will kill my bacteria? My suspicion is no since the temp wasn't that low and low temp doesn't really kill bacteria anyway, but I thought I'd get some opinions from anyone who has been in this situation. Thanks and happy holidays.
