Silver Arawana Question?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Clean all of your other filters in the 210. It will look disgusting and seem wrong, but it'll seed the filter faster than anything. After you do that, either move the aro right away or keep "feeding" the bacteria that are alive with ammonia of some sort. I usually just move the fish and I've never had an issue.

I've got tons of practice because I'm a terrible impulse buyer lol

That's the truth huh?
Also maybe seed the new filter with some of the bio-balls out of the established filter...
 
i had to put a silver in an uncycled 180, just watch carefully and use a test kit every few days to be safe, i also put in a full dose of cycle every day just to be safe
 
Research the nitrogen cycle, knowing and understanding this is a great asset in fish keeping.
