"soup" wrote in message
.uk... Have googled for aquarium cycling and there seems to be 301,000 different opinions on how to do it. A straw poll, how many believe in the chemical approach and how many in hardy fish and does anyone have a method involving black cats and ouija boards  ?.As I understand it "cycling" is too get the level of good bacteria up so they can "eat" fish waste and convert it into nitrites then convert these nitrites to nitrates. -- I use no chemicals and no fish. Just a little liquid ammonia in place of the ammonia produced by fish. Best method imo. Works great with no stress to any fish at all. Once it is cycled I can stock it completely. -- Margolis http://web.archive.org/web/200302152...qs/AGQ2FAQ.htm http://www.unrealtower.org/faq
