I appreciate it's a bit late, and apologies if I have misunderstood your post, but if you put him in a few days after setting up the Biube then that is the reason why he is in trouble. You need to cycle a fishtank properly - absolute minimum should be a couple of weeks, but as tenohfive has stated in other threads, 3-4 weeks is best practice.
Kind of correct, a cycle requires a source of ammonia to be regularly added to the tank either in liquid form or flake food or a raw prawn. The cycle will take 4-6 weeks to complete and will never complete in a two week period.Thanks. It's fabulously easy to maintain, I'm sure it's over filtered as the damn thing never gets dirty looking, just regular, standard maintainence and it's crystal clear. I just pray they'll do a larger size as I'd love to create a marine setup from this tank but I feel this is too small.
