Salut!
Citisem mai demult ce a scris Sandu despre ciclarea solului ADA Amazonia - fara pesti si plante, cu schimburi de apa zilnice prima saptamana etc etc si eram hotarat sa urmez sfatul asta.
Azi am citit ceva asemanator
la tipul asta cu diferenta ca ciclarea a facut-o cu solul imbibat de apa doar, iar peste o luna cand a umplut acvariul cu apa a aruncat prima umplere doar.
Once the soil is covered with sand or gravel add de-chlorinated water to the tank.
NOTE! Add just enough water to saturate the substrate.
The tank should not be submerged yet!!
This part is very important!
[...]
The soil has to settle down before flooding the tank. With this method we can avoid unnecessary algae blooms and water turbidity.
Keep the soil saturated for 1to2 month. Note! Do not flood the aquarium yet. Add more water if it evaporates because the soil must remain submerged at all times to convert (soil cycling) into a settled aquatic soil which the plants require. It is important to wait to ensure sufficient bacteria development involved in nitrification of Ammonium to Nitrates, avoiding NH4/NO2 spikes which are very toxic to fish and crustaceans.
Avantaje / dezavantaje / pareri / experiente?
Multumesc,
