How long should it take a hospital tank to cycle? Have added 4 gal yesterday from the main tank & the hospital is a 30. Right now have a protein skimmer set up & two 15 gal filters. & a bubble wand for more oxygen. & one live rock because i have heard you need a bio & chem filter? I don't really know all about that.

So any suggestions, tips, instructions will be greatly appreciated :smile:
 
I set up a hospital tank a little over a year ago,no need to try and cycle it or worry about it....use some of the filtering media from your DT in the filters for your hosptial and a couple pieces of LR...
 
We use hang on the back filters, so is filter media the blue filter cartriage?

I forgot to mention the hospital tank is for ich treatment. I think we are going to use copper. Would it be alright to go ahead & move the fish from the main tank over to the hospital if we move the filter cartriage, or could we move the filter from the main tank to the hospital.
