    Hi guys.
    Just looking for some more advice.
    Got my boyu 1.5m tank yesterday and I'm looking for some help to go about getting it ready for my fish in my smaller tank(+/- 150 litres) I had all my filter media in my small tank for the new tank for almost 2 months now. I got my sand in and some wood and I put my water conditioner in yesterday. Have not taken out my filter media yet waiting to make sure to get out all the chlorine out of the water.

    If you have used water conditioner, you should be ready to go straight away.

    Set up the new filter, move the media from the old filter to the new one.
    Get that going.
    Then move your existing fish over to the new tank.

    When you start adding new fish, do so slowly, over a period of time. You need to give the new filter time to build up.

    Ok will do that. As soon as the filter media is in the new tank I will throw in my liquid bio filter so that can also run through the filters. Thanks rather make aure than just put them in to early
