Need Help with Cycling.

[Insane Teen]

OK, I have a new tank, and I need help with the cycling. I'm trying to do fishless cycle at the moment. I have a used double filter, and flourite gravel at the moment.

I would like to know what other products I would need. What chemicals you would recomend for the beneficial bacteria in the tank (like seachem, is that OK?), What test strips would you recomend? And any further information you can give would be appreciated.

Thanks.

:fish: :fish: excellent free e-book i took a look at that. Too many rush the cycling. leave the tank for two months...gradually add the fish...gradually....keep checking parameters...... if you can use someones elses media -some of their media and their water. make sure they are good fishkeepers. But don't rush it! patience.
