Ok, so I got new sponges and ceramic rings for my FX5, and after an uber cleaning I put some fresh black substrate in (which will look pretty slick with an Albino Oscar and a Green Phantom pleco running around IMO :headbang2) anyhow, I took the well established sponge filter out of my female betta tank and squeezed all the yum yums out of it near the intake of the FX5 and Im letting it run in there for the night. I also pulled a pretty dicently sized peace of DW, about 2 cups worth of gravel, a few plants and a plastic petsmart cave from the same tank and put it all in the 75. How long do you guys think it would take for BB to take hold?
 
What are you feeding the BB with(ammonia source)?
 
you have to keep an ammonia source in there or it's useless...
 
Im feeding the BB with pure amonia, no additives... last I checked a couple hrs ago it was sitting at .5 ppm and I added another 10CC's of the stuff so it should be pretty high atm unless its been eaten up.
