Hi all, I've currently got a single 20cm axie gal in a 10gal tank which was cycled until recently- Id used an old filter from a previohs tank which id never cleaned after 2 months of owning and threw it out without trying to seed the new filter -yes i regret and know better now-.
Now we're both struggling, after that rookie mistake i made another one of not knowing how often I should change the water in an uncycled tank and was doing a full change one every fourish days. Shes now got pretty bad ammonia burns and Im doing my best to help but i need some advice before i decide where to go from here. Worst comes to worst i can always give her to a good home but id really like to avoid that if at all possible.
I could keep her in the uncycled 10gal and do 50-100% water changes daily? (Whichever percebtage yall recommend) And once its cycled move her and all her accessories + newly cyled filter to the new tank.
OR
Ive got a new 36gal tank today which i could put her in and cycle her in that instead? I could only do a max water change of 50% daily though. But if i did how large of a water change would i have to do daily and which option which benefit her more?
