i was wondering if i could put some bottom feeders in my angel tank which is cycling if it would help it cycle.they would b a candy stiper suckerfish and 2 albino corydoras.SORRY for the same thread but i got no response in Bottom Feeder Frenzy!
ALSO i was wondering if i should buy both my angels as a pair or buy one then get one a week later just to see if the other does well(my mom seems to think this would work b/c she wants to make sure the other live,but i think i should get htem as a pair b/c i read some where most fish like to be bought as pairs.)would the bottom feeders b compatible w/the angels,in my 30 gallon on fishprofiles(this site) they said they would all b compatible w/eachothe but i just wanted to make sure,and see if i should buy them as a pair.and if it would b ok shoould i wait a few days to make SURE 100% of the bleach i used for cleaning my tank is gone,or put them in now.i washe out my tank thouroughly and over used my dechlorinator(AquaSafe) as someone said in my post to how to clean a tank in getting started so i think it will be fine.
PLEASE reply SOON!!!!
SORRY for the long post!!!!
THANKS

First of all, as Joe Potato said in your other thread, you have to be patient. Posting another reply to your own thread won't help you any. It isn't as if people are purposely avoiding your thread and asking them to post will change their minds.

Also, some people may have been put off but your post, just by looking at it. I know some people aren't very good at spelling, grammar, or typing, but if you made a concious effort just to make it more legible it would help you out. Otherwise, it is easier to simply pass up the posts, rather than try to decipher them.

Now, how are you cycling your tank? What are the water parameters? How big is it? What is your intended stock?




They shade the glow of it with their mossy-misty costumes,
They wear masks of silk, porcelain, brass, and silver,
So as not to mislead with their own, ordinary faces.

Not to be rude, but I agree with Janna. It is really fustrating reading a post with out any sentence structure at all. Putting together proper sentences helps to break up different ideas and questions. Writing your post as one very long sentence is terrible.

I would not add any bottom feeder untill after the cycle is complete. IMO plecos should never go in a tank untill after the cycle and the tank is mature.

Is your tank full and the water is circulating? Do you think there is bleach still in the water? If so I would empty the tank and completely rinse the tank out. Then refill and stock with cycle hardy fish to begin the cycling process. Is it a new tank? If so bleaching a brand new tank is not worth it. Way to much work. In your other topic you say you smell bleach in the water. Dump out the water and rinse the whole tank really, really well.
