Thanks ... The cycle is starting now though so the water is getting a bit cloudy already...

Does anyone have any experience with Algone? http://www.algone.com...

They claim it helps during the initial cycle ...

I know patience is the key but I'd like to speed up the process so my fish can survive

I'd recommed Seachem Stability over Algone for helping with the cycle. You'll still need to be checking ammonia, but it should help. Don't worry too much about the cloudiness, as long as the ammonia and nitrites are below 1ppm.

Thanks! I'll definitely check it out

I have the Mardel pH and Ammonia level in the aquarium at all times for constant Ammonia check and I check twice a day the Nitrate and Nitrite levels. Both are at zero still - I have no live plants, fed the fish only a bit, and I only have one tinny goldfish in a 36 gallon tank so - I suppose that's to be expected

Very pretty tank. I love the vivid colors.
How did you get those pictures so... Vivid... and Bright?!
It's amazing.
I use the... I think it's seachem live ammonia tester too. Just the Ammonia thing though. It's little bitty. My angels like to play with it...
As do my kribs XD

You sound like you're doing a great job. And again, amazing pics

I got the pics with Nikon D40... Key - steady hand and no flash

Check out the live video: Peconi's BlueBird-1000.

It wont be live for too long since the camera is still not in permanent place, but you may see throughout the day today.
