Hello! I'm new to the forums and new to having an aquarium, so I have a question about tank cycling, specifically fish (or axolotl)-in cycling.
I have the materials necessary for testing the tank waters and understand the basic chemical process of what is happening during tank cycling. However, I am confused about the actual physical steps I will be taking while cycling the tank. I am aware of partial water changes and testing the water, but how frequently should I be doing this? Also, when I change the water, I add more tap water dechlorinator each time, correct?
If anyone could briefly explain or link me to a more basic guide of the steps of cycling (as in, not an explanation of the chemistry behind the process) I would be extremely grateful!
