I have a 15 litre cold water tank thats 18 months old with 5 fish. 2 danios, 2 barbs & algae eater. Just bought a 30 Litre tank (not sure how many gallons this is sorry) The tank is the same width, just twice as deep. As I want to use all the things in the old tank (apart from the gravel) can I just put everything into the new tank and then top it up a couple of inches each week until its full of water? Will this work? Any advise would be appreciated. Tanks alot!!  |

if u use all the old tank water u can add new water as if u were doing a large water change. |

i would'nt mess about adding a bit of water each week just add the old tank water then top up with new water, just make sure you clean the new gravel b4 you place it into the new tank regards phil. |

if uve got both tanks why not setup the water and let it mature in the new tank (aswell as letting the water settle wen u fill it up and stuff. |
