clownloachfan Fish Addict Posts: 660 Kudos: 850 Votes: 115 Registered: 10-Oct-2003	Hello all. In a few months, i want to set up a 75 gallon loach tank. It will have only loaches and some kind of algae eater. With that being said, how would i cycle? Loaches are sensitive to ammonia and nitrites. That when i stumbled across the article on this site on fishless cycling. Heres the link for those of you that have not seen it.http://www.fishprofiles.com/articles/article.aspx?id=31 Anyone do this here? I really dont wont to use fish to cycle aquariums anymore as it seems that this method is much more faster and safe. How long did it take yours to cycle?

Just be sure to use unscented ammomia. Frank -->>> The Confidence of Amateurs, is the Envy of Professionals <<<--
