2ft with overhead filter with some gery bio home in the filter box itself.
some coral chip in the tank. pour a capful of bacteria in the tank . the tank is very clear now. so how long can i wait to transfer my fish into the new set up tank?
I think u still need to put in fish for the BB to reproduce as BB need "food" to eat too.

I am starting a gold fish tank.. the 5 ft tank use to keep aro but now thinking to change to GF..I am more interested in keeping those giant type but any brother can advise how many can keep in a 5 ft tank.. i am using OHF with 1 tier Bio-Ring only. The tank back ground is black and there is one side i did not paste cos got morning sunlight direct to the tank.

Actually the 5ft tank use to keep my aro, after the buyer collected my aro I change 60% of the water and then after about 3 hr I add in my 2 Oranda. Why I add the Oranda in such a short time that's becos I see some bros here say they wc 90% to 100% of the water when keeping Goldfish

For my case should I change all the water again and run in the tank for a few days? I am adding Nutrafin after wc, what should I add? Also I am using OHF with CR only?

Maybe bro can give more advise

The important qn is, how did you prepare your fish from reaching home till adding into the tank?

I put the bank inside the tank without opening the bag for abt 10mins then open the bag and mix the tank water into the bag for another 10min.. This procedure I do it 3 times.. Then release the fish into the tank
