I moved a few months ago and brought my 20g tank over with its sand and rock, but i started a 60breeder with new sand and just some old rock from another tank I had up before the move. My 20g is a 3 year old system now its super mature and gets no algae, at most a speck of gha. The sand is always white, the 60 breeder is going on 3-4 months. My ugly phase just started about 2 weeks ago and I have cyano. Was wondering how much would bio bricks from my 20g aid in maturing my 60g?
I've had dinos an cyano before Im not worried about them as I know with time they'll be gone I just wanna accelerate the process. I know pods will assist in that as well, A problem im having is low nutrients. 0.01 phosphate, it was 0.04 like a week ago. Since its dropped i noticed an over growth of cyano and 1 or 2 of my frogspawn frags seem upset cause of the low nutrients. I already feed heavy, jsut removed the cup off my skimmer to see if they go back up. I have 6 fish in the tank, I would like to refrain from dosing phos/nitrate but if I have to I will.
