This is probably another daft question, but is there any difference between doing the fishless cycle for coldwater fish or tropicals?
I've got my ammonia, I have some muck from my established filter, do I need to do anything else?

Im not an expert as you will know carole, but I dont think there is any difference. If you have a spare heater you could also raise the temperature of the coldwater tank just while you are doing the cycle becoz it speeds up the bacteria growing.
