Hi!
I have several questions. I know that I put the cart before the horse in this case so now I need some help. I am buying a 125 used tank, filters and stand this weekend. I have already bought and paid for a juvenile group of moops. The tropheus are still at the sellers house as is the tank. The tank is still set up and running at the sellers house. It will take me approximately two hours to get it home. My questions are, do you think the filters will still be "alive" by the time the tank is broke down and brought to my house which is again, approx. 2 hours away? There are 3 HOB filters. I will receive the fish about 3 days later. Do you think it would be safe to add them to this tank? I also have a well cycled 55 gallon tank that contains some juvenile cyps. letosoma utina, 6 juvenile alto. calvus and 3 lamp. occelotus gold.
Would I be better off putting the tropheus in the 55 and putting something else in the 125 until a possible cycle takes place? I know I should have waited on the fish, but they were a very good price. There are 18 of them about an inch or better. I know, dumb,dumb, dumb! Thanks in advance, Doodle
