I just did 30% wc. I notice the water abit cloudy, may be my other tanks are only 1.5-2ft and they not that cloudy.. So may be i gave time till my filter is matured.

[eviltrain]

Wa. I never help much lei. Put my name so big. Haha. Give your tank a few more days, the cloudiness should be all the debris

They are harmless bro rascal... You don't have to 'remote' them away... Hahaha.. (remove)

The white thing is like centre white dot then transparent jelly like around the dot right?

Just ignore it will be gone soon i have lots of them when initial start.

hahah.. haven't cycle i don't dare talk!!! i damn scared because all my previous tanks are 1.5-2ft and i never had problem like tiny bubbles in my system and cloudiness!!! but at list now the cloudiness clear a bit.
For the tiny bubble issue i will change my inlet to a 16mm, so i be using one reducer only. may be because i using 2 reducer thats why have tiny bubbles in the system hope it works

[eviltrain]

I got a feel that somewhere in your system got air intake. Try to see through and retify before your battlion insertion.

looking good. You can start adding plants

[huizhong]

bro, you does the mosura bt-9 whole bottle during setup?

[Blehhhz]

I think the cotton ball stuffs is quite normal when using BT-9. I got it too when i am cycling the tank with Bt-9. Makes me feel like throwing the BT-9 away and try other product. I do try to remove those cotton as it looks digusting. Now i use those metal filter for baking/cooking to prevent those flakes from entering the tank(don't know if it will affect the performance).

The previous BT-9 I bought does not have such flakes. Some of these flakes even became mouldy in my tank when I was cycling it and had to suck them out during water change.
After adding yamato shrimps, it helped as they eat up the flakes

I used 3/4 at base(different bottle) than i bought one from a bro in forum, his one got flakes some bro here say its harmless. Den im ok with it

[huizhong]

3/4 is alot i think. a few spoonful would be enough i think. better to do it slowly. i would think you have to do large water change for a few times with new soil and new tank to play safe. i also do not know whether if your soil has ammonia spike. i think you should get test kits to take readings soon. ammonia, nitrite and nitrate test kits to monitor your tank cycling stages.

Yes...I do realise...
Those flack looks like dried leaf...
Moreover the bottle doesnt show new ingredients...

[Blehhhz]

I emailed the person at aquaculturesg and they replied saying thats the new mix of good bacteria. I would prefer it to be in powder form rather than a bottle of powder with stuffs like fins and flakes.

[rascal]

Orh..i see.. Than it should be ok.
