hi all
im doing a rescape
I have akadama & gravel in the tank and more akadama there to top up and build some mounds with etc
is there any advantage in leaving in all or some of the old substrate
its 6yrs old and has never been changed, its full of mulm
is it full of baddies or is there any goodies in it!
i dont think ill have to recyle the tank, im not doing dry start
ill be dropping the water to sort the substrate but refilling (or partially) pretty quickly
any advice welcome
thanks
