In March I gave away the last fish in my 45 gallon tank (a gold severum if you were wondering) with the intention to get Tropheus fish soon. Unfortunately things got busy and I was unable to order the fish. I’m interested in doing it now since I have time but I was wondering if the tank would need to be recycled since the tank has been sitting for so long. I never turned it off, so the heater and filter never stopped running during this time also.
