Re: Sand vs. Gravel????
Lots of great ideas. Just to chime in, can you use the filter you have on the 75? If you just transfer that over to the 100 when it's set up, that would help greatly to boost the beneficial bacteria growth. Or, I think Raul said it, you could possibly transfer some of your old filter media to the inside of the canister.
If you plan on moving some of the substrate, just be careful. I'd do it after the fish are out of the tank, because if it's been set up for a while, there's a good chance that the anaerobic pockets, when disturbed, could release H2S, which is not at all good for your fish.
Keep us updated on how it's going! Â
