Just remember. Since you have been running with two filters the have been
sharing the load between them. If you take one out of the equation in a
small tank it can cause a mini cycle. Now take into consideration you are
going to have the same number of fish with 1/3 the water in the tank. If a
mini cycle does happen you could be looking at ammonia & nitrite levels
rising quickly.

Oh cycle schmycle. Turns out Barr is right (again). Stick 3" of
floating plants in any tank and you don't need to cycle it.

I tried it a few times, it works. Damn his eyes.

Water sprite, sprigs of hygro, duckweed, hornwort, that sorta
stuff.
