When you abuse and troll others Roy Hauer... others just may just decide to harass you back. Get back on yor meds. Tristan, the slandering net stalking psycho 4Fer is Roy Hauer.

Actually, they *should* vacuum the gravel during the cycling period. That's not what I was told to do unless there was decomposing food on it. And that advice has always worked for me. :-) The nitrifying bacteria secrete a glue like substance and adhere to every surface. They are NOT going anywhere. Vacuuming gravel isn't going to budge them. Then vacuum it. I'll do as I've always done since it works so well for me. It would do more harm to the health of the tank *not* to vacuum during a cycle. True, if there is uneaten food or decaying plants lying on it. It's whatever works for YOU. What works BEST for me is to feed lightly and do enough partial water changes to keep the the ammonia/nitrites at not lethal levels until the cycle is finished. ------- I forgot more about ponds and koi than I'll ever know! |
