Hello all. Looking for some advice.
I have a Fluval spec V at min with Eco Complete as substrate. Not had a good time with eco to be honest mainly with plants not wanting to root into it etc.
My main question is as i have an established filter and a small shoal of Ember Tetras would it be safe to (obviously with fish removed temporary to a spare tank) swap out the eco and replace with The Tropica,replant, refill with maybe 50% old water and introduce the fish back in the same day. Id be doin more frequent water changes as tropica recommend. I understand you dont get the high Ammonia spike with Tropica as you do with say ADA. Any thoughts or advice welcome.
