I have a 55 gallon tank that I just started again - filled it with holy rock
and water, running an Emperor 400 with a powerhead sponge filter running to promote water movement. I tossed in 5 black mollys and 5 marble mollys to start the tank and after a couple died, the water went from cloudy to crystal clear - it's been two weeks - I don't have a water test kit - should I expect that the tank is cycled yet? |

If you plan on putting Cichlids in, I would strongly suggest getting a test
kit and testing. Check you're Ammonia and Nitrite levels as well as pH levels. Do yourself and wallet a favour before spending money on fish. "Texas Yankee" wrote in message ...
