Hi
I have purchased a new tank, added water, gravel, live plants and a filter. Is it wise to add the Filter Active Bacteria to the tank even though there is no fish yet due to their not being delivered at the moment because of the coronavirus.
Thanks
Steve
Hi, I'm not an expert but from experience you probably want to make sure the tank conditions are exactly as they should be (so filter ON) sometime prior to putting your fish in the tank. Certain fish feed on bacteria, so it won't hurt to let it build up a little bit - just don't let your tank get to a stage where its visibly dirty. If it starts to look visibly dirty then put the filer on. Hope this helps :)
