i'm setting up a 10 gal tank, just gotta let is cycle. heres a pic of it so far, and im thinking about taking some water out of my 125 and swapping into this tank

why are you going to take water out and put it in that tank?

im swapping

this might sound stuped but why can you not just take water and sand out of your 125 and get some fully cured liverock and stock the tank wright away.

accualy, thats a great idea, i was going to swap 5 gallons jsut to speed up the cycling

i dont see how that wouldnt work, if the tank is cycled and its the sand from it, why not? but if you do, you might want to wait a few days before adding fish, could get a spike from moving everything around.

i was plannign to wait anyway, but i was just hoping to get it cycled, plus i want to get some filtration
