Hello everyone,
I've got a 125g that I am considering to turn into saltwater, its a planted freshwater that I've had running for about 5yrs. Now I probably know the answer, but just want to know if anyone else has tried this. I was going to remove all livestock and rocks, I have sand substrate and am considering to fill it with saltwater. I know this will cause any bacteria and what not to die inside the substrate, my plan is to run it rock and substrate only for 6months. Would this be ample time to allow any negative effects from the freshwater substrate to disperse? Obviously this is me being lazy, if it comes down to it I probably will just start fresh.
Thank you
