I wouldn't put my fish through the stresses of cycling....i love the
fishless method with ammonia because it gives you a nice large count of
beneficial bacteria

Hi my husband and I are new to the fish hobby. A week and two days ago
we bought six silver tiger angelfish and put them into a 40 gallon
aquarium that was already set up. We have done extensive reading on how
to properly cycle a tank. Unfortunately on the internet no information
is the same. We want to know if during the cycle process we can try to
adjust the ph levels and adjust the water clarity of the tank. Our main
concern is ph levels. It is currently at a 7.2 border 7.4....the fish
are eatting and swimming around no problem but we are aware that the
level should be lower for the fish to thrive. Should we try to adjust
the ph or just wait until the tank is done cycling? Thank you!
