Question: Cycling with tank set up?

[emeraldd]

Should i set up my tank the way it will be when my axie goes in, while cycling it? So that way, when the cycling is finished it doesnt get messed up when i put the decorations in & hurts my axie?

Also, are albinos hard to look after? Like, are they more sensitive to light, etc? Thinking about getting one

Yes good idea. Setting up your tank decorations, substrate etc in advance actually allows a greater surface area for beneficial bacteria to colonise while cycling. It has a practical use too!

Yes albinos are more sensitive to light. You can help by providing plenty of shady hiding places and strategically planted aquatic plants.

Thanks, I thought as much

I've got some pretty cool things for my tank for my albino to hide in, that is, if no one has bought her yet :/

Im very excited :rofl:
