Hi there everyone!
I have a 5 gallon tank someone gave to me (sponge filter, low light and heated to about 73). There are 2 mystery snails, 2 nerites, and 3 ember tetras and lots of plants. I'd really like to remove the white gravel and replace with Eco Complete aqua soil. I'm planning on taking everything out, replacing that ugly white substrate, and putting in the new black aqua soil.
I know this could create a problem, and I know that I'll have to do daily water changes for a while till cycled again. Am I missing anything? Any tips or cautions greatly appreciated.
