hi bud,



nothing to be puzzled about. without fish, there will be no cycling of filter. Nothing to do with whatever bacteria addictive. geoliquid is just another water conditioner.



bogwoods tend to give out organic acid. remember to buffer the water well. Given your huge initial stocking level and if you are feeding regularly in an uncycled tank, your ammonia level will shoot up very fast. Do take note of it, or feed very little till the filter has cycled. Fish will still eat, until a catastrophic spike in ammonia occur.

pai seh ah, maybe wat i type may be misleading... wat i meant is actually to add e bateria to maintain water parameters in satisfactory conditons as e setup is new so no bacterias yet n also bcos e brand of bateria i use converts toxic ammonia to nitrite, nitrite to nitrate, nitrate to nitrogen gas as stated on e box n as recommended by e shop assistant

regarding organic acid... wat i read on bogwoods b4 is tat tannins leach out from e bogwood, thus, e water will be yellow, brown giving it the colour of weak tea, n tannic acid is also present... is there any other acids tat might be produced?? i used salt to bring up e PH n use coral chips to maintain it

still have to thank u for taking e trouble to post n share... pls continue to share ur knowledge.. thanks(EVERYONE) i appreciate it alot!!
