My 75g tank Cranked along the front and has a slow drip...I am currently draining it but my 55g isn't Cycled yet...so I got all my fish into my 20 gallon...
Stock is:
2 Jewels
2 Convicts
2 Assorted African Cichlids
1 Blood Parrot
1 Earth Eater
1 Taiwan Reef

They are all 3 to 4 inches and just in there till the 55g is Cycled...

My question...is there a way to slowly add them to the 55g perhaps 2 at a tine so they can have more room or just make do till its cycled

I am going to add a new glass front to my 75 but it usually takes 3 to 4 weeks

I will but I'm worried about a flash of Death...I love my fish and can't handle a loss right now the tank was enough...I have AM Guard from Seachem as well should I dose it up with that as well to help insure their success?
