Seeding LS?????

[swnewb]

Is there a ratio of LS to Playground sand that can be used as a good seeding starting point? I am cycling my 65 using LR and like most mis-informed newbs, have CC, so now I have the fun job of making the switch over. At least I learned BEFORE my tank cycled and I started adding live stock.

A cup full will get the job done, however adding more will obviously do it faster. You LR will also speed up the process. GL with the switch, Ive done it myself and can't imagine my tank without it. I know you can also use some of your CC if you wish, by putting some of it in a stocking and letting it sit in the tank for a while.

I don't think it will really be much of an undertaking since right now I only have 25# of LR in the tank. Also, it has only been cycling a short time, so I really don't think the CC has anything to offer by keeping it in the tank.
